Vehicles in Motion:  Learning Set 2

Propeller-Car Challenge

We'll be working on designing a propulsion system. A system is a set of parts so interconnected that they work as a whole. A propulsion system is a set of parts that produces a force to make an object move forward. The propulsion system that you design will use a propeller to make the propulsion force to move your car.
