Y12 Physics Bridge Building

WBHS Science —

The Level 2 physics class were set the challenge to build a bridge from Popsicle sticks. They were given 500 sticks and a glue gun!

The principles applied were force, torques and equilibrium. The bridges had to span at least 60cm and hold 2kgs. All bridges reached the minimum specifications easily. A prize was awarded for design and another for the winning mass of 40kgs! Well done to all the teams.
