Force Analysis Of Cardboard Chair!

This is our sort of free body diagram of our chair. The chair is in the middle, and there is a big arrow pointing down from the chair. When you sit down on the chair, the force is going down. The two legs have an upward force. In the picture, the top square is the back. The middle one, that looks like a checker board, is our seat. The two random boxes sticking out on the bottom of the picture is the two boxes that we have under our chair. There is a force going to the left and the right. There is a force of going on the back. Therefore, there is one on the opposite side. The correct vectors are the one's on the right. NOT THE LEFT.

We learned that all sides of the cardboard must have some type of support on them. It must all be even. We also learned that we must all show up to work on the chair to get the finished product done. We learned the different type of force vectors that are forced down onto the chair. We learned how to invent a chair!!!!

More Progress on Cardboard Chair!

 In the picture to the right, we are placing rows of cardboard into slits that we cut into the legs of our chairs to help support the weight of the seat.  

 In the picture above, we are rolling cardboard to place in between the legs of our chair to help support the weight.

 In this picture above, we are now placing our rolled cardboard in between the legs of the chair. This is to help the legs stay sturdy to be able to hold you up.

 In the picture above, we are all cutting slits into the legs of our chair so that we can place rows of cardboard in between them for support.

To the right, we are placing the seat, where your bottom will go, above the rows of cardboard slits we put into the legs.

This is also a picture of us placing cardboard into our slits above.
