Hybrid car
Our job was to build a car that saves energy and land as close as possible to the 5 meter mark. In our first car design we had planed to make it solar powered but, we could not find a strong enough light bulb to power it. So we used out battery and then got it to work. Our car was the power flower and it was small but still landed on the 5 meter mark exactly.
A hybrid vehicle is a vehicle that uses two or more distinct power sources to move the vehicle.The term most commonly refers to hybrid electric vehicles, which combine an internal combustions engines and one or more electric motors. However other mechanisms to capture and utilize energy are included.
How it works
A normal motor is not efficient but a hybrid car is more efficient. Out car was electric but still fit the projects requirements.
our car was simple, it included
-wood frame
-motor
-battery
-wheel and axel
-wire

Resolution
in the end we had many problems with the car like belt falling off axel and battery burning through the ducktape. And in the end the rubber broke and we had to get a new one last sec but it still worked.
