Objective
To effectively and efficiently conserve energy and momentum.
To be a true Gator-Hator.

Process
Ball Bearing released from rest at top
Changes direction from pipe onto wooden track.
Ball knocks bucket off end of track.
Weight of bucket raises the Gator.

Conclusion
Direction and Velocities change at first impact (from pipe to track).
Momentum and Energy is conserved at second impact (bucket/ball collision).
Gator is successfully terminated!!
