Gifted World Challenge #17

Hi everyone!

Summer holidays have begun in many schools in South India, and we at Gifted World have a whole bunch of exciting challenges, masterclasses and courses coming up to keep everyone's curiosity satisfied!

This week's challenge is a test of your spatial thinking.

Answer the question by going to our linked Google Form - https://forms.gle/8cUbt1R46cZAmDYK8

It was created by Janani Eswar and is related to our upcoming masterclass - Building Motion: How Machines Walk, Glide, and Move - being conducted this Saturday by Rupin Chheda - more details are below!

Look at this construction move and then read the instructions below

This is a simple construction of rods and joints. 

• One of the rods (marked in orange) is being rotated to the full range of motion possible at the joint marked with a purple circle. 

• The black dot indicates a crayon attached to another joint. 

• The bottom two joints are fixed on a board. All joints are free to swivel.

In the questions below, can you correctly predict the shape drawn by the crayon during the movement?

Watch the GIF above for an idea of how these constructions might move and jump into the next puzzle!
