Collaborate with fellow Western Engineering students to design the most effective and innovative Chemical-E-Car.
Design a car that will travel a given distance and can stop without human assistance in a short period of time.
Build a network of engineering students to help you with your studies and career.
In a hydrogen fuel cell, a catalyst at the anode separates hydrogen molecules into protons and electrons, which take different paths to the cathode. The electrons go through an external circuit, creating a flow of electricity.
Elephant's toothpaste is a foamy substance caused by the rapid decomposition of hydrogen peroxide using potassium iodide or yeast and warm water as a catalyst.
We are using circuito.io to program a photoresistor to send a signal to the Arduino to shut off the motor when the foam from the elephant toothpaste blocks off the light source.
In February 2021, team members will remotely compete to build the best car body out of only recycled materials.
