Welcome to the Technology Education website. Please Browse around at our balloon popping machine designs. Thank you and have a nice stay!
When the Chucky Cheese Restaurant has a celebration, they provide balloons for the occasion. When the celebration ends, the balloons are left at the restaurant. Chucky Cheese is requesting a device that will successfully pop a balloon on a consistent basis but not to use any motor or people to operate the device. The machine can only be set in motion by a person but the person cannot do the work.
COMPOUND MACHINE ACTIVITY
The technically correct definition of a compound machine is that of any device which contains at least two simple machines. The assignment is to build a compound machine which is capable of popping a balloon!
