Questions:
Are the two prototype solutions
effective in solving the problem and do
they fit within the constraints of the
engineering problem?
Which prototype is the better design
solution? Explain your reasoning.
In order to be considered a successful
prototype, the design must cost less
than $0.75, have a mass of 15 grams or
less, and fit the 10 cm x 10 cm x 10 cm
dimensions.
The table below contains the data
related to testing and the constraints.
