Moment of Inertia Contest

  Momentofinertia T

Students will design a wheel with a 3 inch diameter to go down a 30 degree ramp with the smallest moment of inertia.  Lesson includes operations for the wheel to be produced with a 3D Printer.  The lesson will also work well for production on a computer driven lathe.  Contributed by Leslie Trexler.
