1.Rube Goldberg is well known for creating a series of cartoons showing
complicated contraptions or machines. These contraptions usually do
something simple that uses many different steps.

Here is a contraption that shows a ball on a table that rolls down a ramp.
The ball strikes a match and the match ignites. The light from the match
shines on a photo cell that creates electricity. The photo cell is connected to
a meter that measures the voltage of the electricity.

Match a form of energy to the correct spot in this Rube

Goldberg contraption.
