The Science Department at Petoskey High School includes a vast offering of science courses that expose students to a wide variety of different career and technical possibilities. Students in the Honors Physics course were involved with the Veggie Mobile as they worked in engineering groups to solve the follow problems.

1) What updates/tune-ups etc. should be completed on the Veggie Mobile to make it a more efficient vehicle?

2) Design and invent a system that would allow the Veggie Mobile to run on as little fossil fuels as possible - reduce diesel running time and increase veggie oil running time.

3) Implement an exterior design for the Veggie Mobile that promotes "going green" and Petoskey High School "Home of the Northmen"

*Additionally, a student who was studying AP Physics C completed some intensive calculations on inventions/innovations so see the viability of each.

Please see the links listed below for specific requirements, students final projects and some amazing physics calculations that were used to determine which innovations would have scientific validity.
