Participation with a great competitive spirit:

The girls of Aditya Degree College, Gopalapatnam have exhibited a model in which the process of producing electricity from speed breakers is shown and a model in which how street lights can be lit up with the help of sensor energy. One more batch of students have shown the functioning of air cooler without the help of water or snow. They also explained about the way in which steam can be produced from the water when sun light falls through glass on water and in turn how it can be used to move turbines to produce electricity. The students of R.K. College, Vizianagaram have exhibited a model in which a fire engine can move on two wheels especially in a place where there is a lot of traffic.
