Physics Questions, er... Answers to said.

1. The most rewarding part of the paper tower building project for me was probably the building itself. The designs were rough and potentially flawed so there was a fair amount of uncertainty. While we were building it everything came together and our confidence rose greatly. All and all it was better for team building as well.

2. The initial designs match the finished product for the most part but while we were building changes were made without any prior plans of them. originally (at least I) had planed to use rectangular prisms that were later changed to circles and cylinders were added and lengths of them were changed.

3. If I were to do it again I would make the tower more widened towards the top. It was the most vulnerable part and was clearly our downfall. Curiously enough the towers that were essentially a single cylinder seemed to hold more.
