My sister is supposed to make a Rube Goldberg for ninth grade science. It is supposed to do a simple task like to put tooth paste on a toothbrush. It is due tommorow and she waited till the last minuite so does anybody got any ideas? She can't think of anything so I thught i'd ask here.Thanks

we had to do one in HS that ran a golf ball down pvc pipeand dropped it on a tee...it also had to seperate toothpicks and paperclips and raise a flag....golf ball rolls down the PVC hits a weight that would drop and raise the flag then the ball continues knocks over a cup of toothpcks and paperclips into a glass of water where the clips sink and the picks float then it continues down and drops vertically onto a tee in a tight area...

BTW, it's 100% real. The tires rolled up-hill because there was hardware from the car placed inside, weighting one side of each wheel.

They were going to slow to roll up hill even if they were weighted to one side. FAKE

i think the tires actually are real, ive seen that clip and weights in the tires would make them do that. if you search break.com theres a project that someone did with the same requirments dealing with nintendo and rube goldberg.

You should do some research before making claims.

This should get you started:
