i can only use one sheet of white printing paper, 50 cm of masking tape, and the tower has to be free standing for at least 10 seconds. it needs to be 125cm+ to get an ';A';. working in class and its due friday please helpA free standing tower with one sheet of printing paper and 50cm of masking tape please help?!?
You can get 8 strips of paper 1'; wide and 11 inches long (sorry, I'm way too old for metric - tower needs to be about 49 inches tall?)
If you roll a strip on a pencil and tape it in a few spots and pull the pencil out you get an 11'; long tube that's pretty stiff. You can make 8 of them.
Make one, then roll the next one with an inch of overlap so you have a 21'; long tube that's pretty stiff. Five 11'; sections with an inch of overlap at the four 'joints' will be 51'; tall. And you have enough paper to make three more 11'; pieces to make a tripod to hold it upright.
Practice at home.A free standing tower with one sheet of printing paper and 50cm of masking tape please help?!?
Did you forget to mention some materials? That wouldn't even be possible with only one sheet of printing paper... unless this is a mammoth piece of paper.. and even then you might need more tape. Is your teacher asking you to be McGuyver or something?
roll the paper into a cylinder and tape it so that it doesn't come apart?
