Cooper Middle School's Mission Possible Device

The video features Cooper Middle School's 2022 Mission Possible team presenting their device. The device involves a series of mechanisms including marbles, dominoes, syringes, and levers. The process starts with a marble hitting a domino, triggering a chain reaction involving water flow, inclined planes, and pulleys. Each component is explained in detail, showcasing the complexity and precision of the device. The video concludes with a demonstration of the device in action.

What is the primary purpose of the Cooper Middle School's 2022 Mission Possible team?

• To create a device that performs a series of actions

• To develop a new educational curriculum

• To build a robot for a competition

• To design a new type of marble

What happens when the first marble is dropped in the device?

• It triggers a light sensor

• It hits a domino and bounces back

• It activates a motor

• It starts a timer

How does the syringe mechanism affect the timing of the device?

• By altering the speed of the dominoes

• By changing the size of the marble

• By adjusting the incline of the plane

• By using different caps to control water flow

What role does the foam platform play in the device?

• It acts as a weight to balance the device

• It supports the syringe

• It rises with water to move a marble

• It serves as a base for the dominoes

What is the function of the fishing line in the device?

• To measure the speed of the marbles

• To pull a marble up an inclined plane

• To connect the marbles to the syringe

• To secure the dominoes in place

How does the inclined plane contribute to the device's operation?

• It increases the speed of the marbles

• It holds the foam platform in place

• It allows a marble to be pulled up by the fishing line

• It serves as a base for the syringe

What happens when the lever with a weight is tipped?

• It releases a magnet

• It stops the water flow

• It starts a timer

• It activates a light

What is the final action in the device's sequence?

• A marble hits a light sensor

• A marble is placed back at the start

• A lever is pulled to stop the device

• A cylinder rolls and hits the starting marble

How does the device ensure the marbles move in sequence?

• By using electronic sensors

• By manually adjusting each marble

• By using a series of levers and pulleys

• By relying on gravity alone

What is the significance of the wedge in the device?

• It holds the marbles in place

• It measures the speed of the marbles

• It separates two marbles when released

• It acts as a counterweight
