Build a KISS the Sun car, and then use it to investigate one of the following:
1.
Predict the best way to place the panel relative to the sun with a drawing below. Explore
different orientations with your solar car and the sun or a light source. Explain your results.
2. Predict which way your car will travel with a simple drawing below. Try it, and record the
results. Does your car travel in a straight line? Explain what factors will affect the way the car
travels.
3. Predict what will happen as you cover the panel from top to bottom and from side to side with a
diagram below. Describe your observations. Explain what you think is happening.
