Pringle Challenge
The pringle challenge was where were put into groups of 3-5 people. Our directions were to create a safe low mass packaging for our pringle to travel in. However we could not use the pringle container that is had come in or any sort i=of container that it was similar to. Our goal was to make a safe package that would keep our pringle from braking or having any harm done to it. We then would calculate our mass and volume then send it to our teacher's parents house. They would then send them back and our other team would grade how good of intactness our pringle came back as. For our package we used a small container and filled half of it with installation foam, then we put the chip and filled the rest in. We then duct taped it closed and just to make sure it was going to be durable we put it in a cereal box full of cottons. We would have and got a lower mass and volume if only we had just stuck to the small container but we just wanted more protection. When we got our pringle back it had broken a little. There were little bits and pieces missing but we got an okay score.
