Students will use the engineering design process to construct and test a fully solar powered model car. Building and testing a solar car combines aspects of electrical and mechanical engineering. Students will learn how to connect the photovoltaic panel to a motor and run it forward and backward. Students will also test gear ratio, angle of the solar panel, weight of the car and other variables to optimize their design. The testing of the solar car culminates in a solar race between classmates. This project is part of a semester of projects that focus on alternative energy in STEM class.
