Physics and Robotics Students Test Collision Calculations

Collision Test at Slaughterhouse Canyon, Bellevue
The Wood River High School Advanced Placement Physics classes along with Blaine County Bots will be conducting another collision experiment this spring. The question being investigated this year will be: "Does decreasing collision time increase survivability for passengers?" The AP Physics classes will give a public presentation before the test. It will be at the Community Campus, in the Minnie Moore room, on May 24th at 11:00 a.m. The students will present on survivability versus collision time and shear velocity required. A question and answer time will follow. The collision tests will take place in Slaughterhouse Canyon (Bellevue) on May 27th at 12:00 p.m. It is free to the public and transportation to the test site will be provided.
Here is a link to last year's project. A special thanks goes out to Blaine County Education Foundation, Sun Valley Auto Club and the city of Bellevue for making this test and presentation possible.
