Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions
This is part 3 of a unit. This lesson focuses on building the base for the ferris wheel. Students are encouraged to design and create a base that is wide enough to hold their wheel and tall enough to
