We continued building our car this morning in the Engineering lesson. Cynthia, Seb and I worked as a team. We modified the design of the car since it could not run smoothly. We added some weight to our rear wheels by adding two more wheels on each side. During the process of making our car, we showed our team spirit by specialising the tasks. Seb worked with the rubber band and powered the car; Cynthia dealed with the decoration part; and I was responsible for testing the speed of the car. Finally, we had done it! We made a ‘Pepsi Car’ since the front part of the car was coloured with red and blue. We were all very glad to see our car racing successfully.
After lunch, we visited the Department of Materials. We saw various technological equipments. There was a large water tank testing the patterns of waves which impressed me a lot. We also saw some experiments involving how the properties of materials changes with alteration in temperature. The tour gave me an insight of what studying Engineering was all about in a university. I definitely enjoyed it so much.
