Week 7

After snapping off the blades on our motor we tested it with a slow drummel and a drill. We discovered that the motor produced 2.5 volts with the slow drummel. It was equivalent to spinning the blades fast by hand. Then when the drill was attached to spin it there were 6.2 volts produced.
We got our turbine from the printer. it looks very cool but is very thin and is very likely to break. We are going to make a few more with different thinkness and sizes to test.
