Re: Engineering Challenge- Spring Loaded Kicker Edition

I would go with D; it would mean less momentum and energy loss due to friction on the way down. Assuming! that the kicker was put together by a bunch of monkeys (I'm a programmer), it might just have too much friction loss to get 100% effiiciency from the spring.
