The “Volunteers”
The Project

The bouncy ball (manually started) rolls down an
obstacle and eventually land on a mousetrap, setting it
off.

When the mousetrap is set off, it hits the bag of rocks
which is attached to the string that is attached to the 1
kg weight.

The bag of rocks falls to the ground lifting the 1 kg
weight.
