Students in Mr. James Bridgman's physics class designed and built balloon-powered cars to show Newton's 3rd Law of Motion.  The students then tested their designs.  After testing the students discussed how they could improve on their design using Newton's 2nd law. After testing and discussing, Crusaders made the modifications to their original model based on their experiment results and discussion.

"We changed our design and replaced the platform with half of a water bottle because the water bottle was lighter than the platform.  We kept the cart very light using straws to build it, so the force that was generated from the balloon and the small mass allowed us to go the fastest and the farthest," said Mack Brown '19 and Charles Gaubert '19.
