  2. A New Innovation of Cars

  3. DESIGN: Our car consists of a wooden body, two wheel and axles, and a hammer pendulum.

  4. Benefits of the Hammerhead Car: • Renewable energy – “Gravity’s got your back” • High rate of acceleration • No hassle of a dead battery • No gasoline • Very sturdy and long lasting • Cost efficient

  5. Average Cost • On average, gas would cost you $9,000 a year! • Gas for The Hammerhead costs $0!

  6. Gravitational Potential Energy: energy an object processes due to gravity • Energy stored to convert into kinetic energy or motion • Prototype: PE = 4.34 J • Car: PE = 6,273.27 J (mass of car contributes to hammer’s force - larger potential energy)

  7. A lot of energy is converted into thermal energy which is cause by friction.

  8. The Hammerhead: In Action
