Who Lives Where?

           First, all of the hints were categorized. At this time, we newly learned that the first resident is a Norwegian and the second house is blue. Also, the green house is to the left of the write house, wh house hich means that the green house is fourth, because a man in the green house drink coffee, not milk. Next, from the hints, we learned that the house in the middle is red and is inhabited by an Brit. Third, from the hint that the owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill, we learned that the yellow house is in the first and this house owner smokes Dunhill. Fourth, from the hint that the man who keeps horses lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill, the owner in second house keeps horses. Fifth, from two hints that the man who smokes Blends lives next to the one who keeps cats and the man who smokes Blends has a neighbor who drinks water, the owner in the second drinks water. Sixth, from the hint that the person who smokes Pall Mall keeps birds, the owner in th

The Moon Lander Challenge

Eigo Gachizei   This team’s basic moon lander module is triangle, and it is increased aerodynamic drag by attaching three cards to each side of the triangle. I explain how to make this moon lander. First, we wrap an index card around the paper cup to serve as a weight. This process is also meant to flatten it.     Second, we prepare four pieces of cardboard cut into triangle, and we attach the cardboard along the sides of the paper cup. We make several slits in the cardboard and wrap rubber bands around them to secure it in place. Third, we attach straws vertically to each of the cardboard. Finally, we attach a marshmallow to the end of each straw. The purpose of this is to absorb the shock of the straw when it touches the ground   This team has three difficult points in this challenge. First, reducing the aerodynamic drag as much as possible. Because, they need to drop the lander straight down. Therefore, they made the shape of their lander vertically.

Balloon Car Challenge

Balloon Car Challenge Kira Kira Flyers   This team’s balloon is powered by air coming out of a balloon attached to the front of the car. The materials that they use to make this balloon car are four plastic bottle caps, two toothpicks, two balloons, three rubber bands, a thick straw, and two clothespins. I explain how to make this balloon car. First, we make holes in the plastic bottle caps large enough hold a toothpick. Second, we glue the two plastic bottle caps and a two toothpick. Therefore, we make another one of the same. Third, we attach a balloon to a straw using a rubber band and make another one of the same. Finally, we put them on top of the two things made of toothpicks and plastic bottle cap and glue them together. After listening to this presentation, I think there are two problems in this balloon car design. First, it is place balloons in front of the car. The reason I think it is problem is that if there is a in front of the car, it would get in th

The 60 seconds Mable Run Challenge

Kira Kira Fliers The team’s track refers to places in Kumamoto Prefectures. For example, Sea’s pyramid, the caldera of Mount Aso, Green land and Tsujun bridge. The materials that they use to make this track are construction paper, tape, glue, scissors, plastic bottles, hoses, tissue boxes, cutters, and cardboard.      The first section referred to sea’s pyramid is made by rolling paper into a corn and the path that a marble passes is made using paper and hose.      The second section referred to Tsujun bridge is made with tissue boxes.The team makes this part tilt slightly because a marble becomes to run smoothly.      The third section referred to the caldera of Mount Aso is made with plastic bottles.      The fourth section referred to the roller coaster in Green land is made with hoses. They make a shape that use a hose to go between two rails in the fourth part. I think this team’s track design is very unique and this track is well designed. I think the third sectio

Paper Airplane

Image
Team<Eigo Gachizei> 1.Place the paper vertically and fold the bottom edge to the left edge. 2.Fold back the crease and then fold the bottom edge to the right edge. 3.After the crease is undone, fold slightly inward from the crease. 4.Fold down the quarter line 5.Fold left and right side to aligin with centerline 6.Fold to the back along the middle line. 7.Fold the wings on both sides slightly off the corner of the tip. 8.Spread the left and right wings. Reason that they chose the process They chose the process because this paper airplane flew the straightest. 1. Effectiveness of presentation(8) 2. Uniqueness and beauty of design(8)  3. Prubability of success(9) Team<No,1> 1.Fold in half lengthwise. 2.Fold the bottom corners to the fold line. 3.Fold the triangle over. 4.Fold the bottom corner to the fold line again. 5.Fold the right and left corners in line with the fold line. 6.Fold the fold line further. 7.Fold each of the top and bottom corners. 8.Fold in half u
