Compound Machines
In this project, my group had to create a compound machine using 3 simple machines we already learned and have a IMA of 5 or greater, all within a week's time. Our machine is first an inclined plane, then a
pulley system and last a wheel and axle. We brainstormed several possibilities but none were better than this one. our Machines IMA is 5.204. We worked very well together and came up with many ideas. Every day we were able to get a little farther with the project. At one point we accidently mislabeled something causing us to come up with an incorrect IMA. With the notes we had taken we were able to correct it together.
