Our Paper Tower

Sadly, our paper tower could not stand despite being the tallest tower in the class. The problem occurred when we realized that the center of mass isn't near the bottom, but more spread out across the tower. We took the form most towers would take; a triangle. Big on the bottom and getting smaller and smaller as it goes to the top of the tower. Well, there's nothing more to it, but we learned from our mistake and will hopefully be successful in the next project. :]

Hiiiighest Structures in the World?

After googling "The Highest Structure in the World", I found a tremendous tower called Burj Khalifa located in Dubai. As of now, it is the tallest man made structure at 828m in height. This building of this amazing structure began in 2004 and finished in 2009. Overall, the structure takes the shape of a triangle; large on the bottom and getting smaller and smaller towards the top. The reason for this is probably to effectively balance the giant tower. This design also allows the main center balance to be near the middle and bottom portion of the tower.

~*The Big 5 (Le Grand Cinq)

What are they? Equations ofcourse. The photos I took are way too blurry, and my scanner isn't working, so.. there won't be any pictures, but I did it. Honesty is guaranteed here in this blog, whether it's good or bad.

Anyways, with that aside, there are the big 5 equations, but more importantly, there are 4 different types of projectile motion learned so far. What are they? Good question, the path of the projectile motion are created as follows:

1. When an object is thrown from an elevated level to a lower elevated level. (When Juliet throws something to Romeo from Juliet's balcony)

2. When an object is thrown to an area of the same elevation. (Hitting a baseball)

3. When an object is thrown from an lower elevated level to a higher elevated level. (When Romeo throws something to Juliet's balcony)

4. When an object is thrown from an elevated level to a lower elevated level in an upward curved motion. (When Juliet throws something to Romeo from Juliet's balcony)
