Fling Machine Reflection
A way to optimize the design would be placing the two cotton balls between two corks and rubberbanding it together. Then we would throw it and measure the distance afterwards. One thing I would do differently would be simplifying it but make it go further. I did not see anything wrong with my team, Pallavi and I worked really well together. Given the constraints I believe my team worked really well and optimize the design by using the less. I believe that some teams kinda "cheated" the constraints by using their arm. To our group it was the easy way out. That they really didn't have to think on how to fling something with a device, not an arm.

Unit Conversion Reflection
For my project I was in charge of significant figures, and running the game. For me both of these topics were really easy for me to do. The most challenging thing for my group was a way to make unit conservins fun. We really enjoyed making a presentation out of unit conversion, but making it fun was extremely difficult as it is such a "dry" topic. We worked decently as a team. There was some issues with people not doing really anything for brainstorming, but in the end it was all right. For brainstorming we wrote down all the conservins and an outline for our presentation. We also wrote all the necessities/ requirements for this presentation.

Colors in the kaleidoscope
Most of these photos of kaleidoscopes are not mine, but the orange, yellow, and black kaleidoscope colors are mine.

Color Theory, and Color Wheel
A color scheme is an arrangement or combination of colors used to decorate or display an object. Color theory is having the knowledge to mix colors and put colors together. Monochromatic colors, Analogous colors, complementary colors, color triads, and split-complementary colors all display how colors interact with each other. How there are different shades and tints of a color. How there is a base color with different next to it (Analogous). How some colors are directly opposite of each other and complement the other colors, and in the end make others. Color Triads is the use of the three colors to make different shades or tints or a whole new color. The Split- Complementary Scheme uses a base color, and then two adjacent to it's complement (Split-Complementary Scheme).

Final presentation - Fli Co.

^^^^^^^^^PowerPoint is the link above but is connected through my email.^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
In my PowerPoint I discussed the problems due to normal flight and supersonic flights. They where cost, time, experience, and the courtesy to those underneath the plane having to deal with the sonic boom. My solution was to create an aerodynamic plane equipped with 4 engines, 2 on each side. What would then happen, is I would have 2 different engines, 1 type of engine on each side. This would allow the plane to fly supersonically over water, and just under supersonic speed over land. There would be Teflon underneath near the engines and underneath the plane so incase of any sparks or physical disruptions, the engines and anything underneath the plane would not catch fire. The engines will not have struts do to the fact that at high speeds they could potentially rip off. The only thing that could hamper the in-flight experience is that there will be no windows. This is due to the fact that there is an increased drag effect with them on. So we will have a live stream at the push of a button to appear on the wall. It will be the size of your row, still allowing you to look outside. The cost will remain the same as a commonly used flight, but we get you there faster, and you will be happier. So come Fli with us.

Multi-View Drawing
The purpose of construction lines is a line used in drawing that helps construct other lines, then is later erased because it is not part of the actual drawing. Where as hidden lines are used to show hidden features of an object. Center lines are used to indicate the center of a circle, arc or any unsymmetrical object. Object lines are A thick, heavy line in drawings that outlines the structure or object. Used for the main outlines of an object. Professionals would probably prefer this so that they can display their product/ drawing easier to other people. This would show all the angles and details in the fewest drawings possible. Multi-view shows different angles, and perspectives of an object.
