Notes

These units are super confusing

Work Completed

we looked at the calculations from last time and tried to figure out the units involved. We realized the calculations were wrong and Tom sent a revision while Brent started it over and spent 2 hours putting stuff on the board. He has not come up with a final answer at the time of writing this. We were trying to buy springs according to these calculations. Mike is going to order a large quantity of the strongest springs on Mcmaster out of desperation.

Challenges

We are having trouble figuring out what is happening on mcmaster and exactly how torsion springs work and the different physics involved involve a lot of calculus, something most of the team has not been exposed to.

Work for Next Meeting

Finish math and try to jerry-rig kicker extension spring

On Schedule?

Doing pretty well
