Changes we did from the rough draft to final draft.
We did a smaller product explication because I think I out a lot of fluff. Also we saw other cars that could be made same kind of material and maybe even better but it cost a lot lees those where most of the changes

Final Draft
HOVER-CARS FINAL PROPOSAL
Who will buy it, how do you know?
People or families with lots of money will buy our hover-car. It’s very expensive considering the parts used to make it. (i.e. metals and magnets and various other materials.) We also have to put metal all along the roads if we mass product our product, or else the cars will not be able to fly. We can lessen the cost by making it in places such as China, but they will still be more expensive than ground cars.
Invention Description
Our project is a vehicle that you can steer and drive like a normal car, but it runs on a magnetic field. It levitates off of magnets on the bottom, back, and front of the car, and magnets on the floor as well. It cannot hover without magnets. It will also be pretty heavy compared to a normal car.
How Much Does the Car Cost?
The car costs about 125,000 dollars depending on what materials and kind of magnets are used to make it.
Space Magnetics, Retrieved From: http://www.spacemagnetics.com/home/hovercraft/faq_hovercraft.html (2004)
This article gave us the idea of having magnets on the car. There could be 2 different poles both inside the car, but a better way would be to have magnets on the bottom of the car and the floor. This article also tells us that the car functions off of a magnetic field.
This article tells us that we should put magnets on all the roads so it will allow the hover-car to fly as long as it’s on the road.
Bill Beaty, 2005 Retrieved From: http://amasci.com/maglev/train.html
This article gives us the information of how to allow the car to hover without having it slipping and sliding off the track. You have to have 2 long magnets on the board and on the track, because if it was just one long magnet the car could fall. The magnets on the road have the match the magnets on the car.
Dennis R. Jenkins, Tony Landis, Jay Miller, 2003, American X-Vehicles, Retrieved From: http://history.nasa.gov/monograph31.pdf
This told us that the weight of the car depends on what materials you use to make it, the density of those materials, and how much the car can elevate.
This short article gave us a price range of the car we would build. It costs about 125,000 dollars, which is pretty pricy.
My part of the rough draft proposal
THe object description and who is going to buy and the cost.
Object description:
The hover cars is an object or product that will be used as a normal car for travaeling. Unlike the car which stay on the ground the hover car as the name says it hover and can reach speeds of up about 500 kilometers per hour. Also it uses magnets to move around instead of gasoline making eco friendly also we won't have to make more roads because there is metal everywhere like river or pond etc. Who would buy? anybody really but especially people from extremely congested city like bogota or new york city.
How much does it cost. the good ones made out of fine metals and they have leather seats carbon fiber outside can cost a lot like 190,000 dollars over the years you will save a lot of money because of the rising price of gas.

Knowledge building notes
Throughout this project i have learned a bunch of new things like electromagnetic field can be created with a metal and putting electricity through it. Also we are going to create a special thing called v formation days in which you can only travel in a V formation and we can test the efficiency of the cars. what hot spots are a form flying which you use warmup drafts to glide along the way.

Which theme is better.
My partner has man vs man and i had man vs society after long debating we said that my theme was better but why.
Man vs man: when shay fights with tally because she suspected that tally brought an end to the smoke by calling special circumstances. Also there is a little conflict between peris and tally because peris is a pretty (a bubble head) and tally is not so she crashes the party and meets up with peris. She got meanly stared at by peris and tally felt really reject by her friend. She thought that they were so good friends that it wouldn't matter how they looked but in the end it did.
There is also some unspoken tension between maddy (david mother) and tally, because maddy knew that tally had given the position of the smoke away and also because they were taken away Dr. cable kills his husband by experimenting on him.
Man vs society. when shay and tally start talking bout being pretty shay is the man and tally talks for society because shay says there is more to beuty than being a barbie doll but on the other hand tally says thats are there is too it. I personaly think that there is more to beuthy than what is on the outside but it cna't hurt if you are also pretty.
Shay is very radical but right she thinks that if you're that pretty you are either stupid or bot very nice, she is only right in the book because very body has a brain fissure.

Shay is very radical but right she thinks that if you're that pretty you are either stupid or bot very nice, she is only right in the book because very body has a brain fissure.
The theme is Man vs Society
I think that the theme of the book is man vs society because even though there is some conflicts that are man vs man and man vs nature the book is about not only two girls or a small village defying society the author is trying to change how the world thinks what beautiful.
Society has shaped itself so that it hides mysterious facts and clues about what is going on. The government to me is the one organization who can have the biggest impact on society, and the government decides to do the bubblehead and turn every one pretty so society after a time thinks that is what is normal.

Clues about theme
When shay is talking about the smoke and she tell tally how no one is pretty so everybody is. I think the theme is man vs society and a little man to man.
When shay tells tally that the whole image that they're city puts is wrong that everybody is beautiful in there one way. Theme here is man vs society
When tally is looking for the smoke and she has to endure fight the wildernes. Man Vs Nature

Real learning IS:
when you know a topic really well, you could talk about it for hours.
A good teacher can explain things 100 as long as the student gets it, she doesn't lose her patient and knows the topic she is explaining no just copying a site therefore it is easier for her to give example etc.
