to design and create a vehicle powered by a mousetrap to travel the furthest distance compared to other designs using blank. The vehicle that was created collapsed and did not achieve a certain distance. That showed the instability and blank of the vehicle. Vehicles move by propulsion, a form of energy conversion. It changes the stored form into movement. Railroad locomotives use a diesel engine that converts chemical energy in kerosene into a turning motion that drives an electric generator. The

The suspension systems is made to maintain the vehicles correct ride high, support weight of the vehicle, maintain proper wheel alignment, keep the tires in contact with the road, control the vehicle direction of travel, and reduce the effects of shock forces. Wheel alignment error can cause three common problems on

America's Love for Sport Utility Vehicles They have taken America by storm. Defined as “rugged automotive vehicles similar to a station wagon but built on a light truck chassis” (Gurlanik 723), Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) have taken over the roads.

The driverless cars work all by today’s technology the google car for example needs a (LIDAR) a lidar is used to build a 3D map and it allows the car to see potential hazards or objects by bouncing a laser beam off surfaces surrounding the vehicle to accurately determine the distance of that object. A (RADAR) the radar is hidden in the front bumper with two sensors there and two sensors in the rear this allows the car to avoid impact by sending a warning to the person
