FLIGHT

Aim: To learn about flight and aerodynamics. 

  • In your groups of 3 you will make a paper plane and measure its distance and behavior.
  • In groups of 3 you will make a water rocket and record its distance and behavior.

Definition:   


4 forces of flight:


  1.  Thrust  
  2.    lift
  3.  drag 
  4.   gravity

Paper Plane:

Material:

1. paper 
2. paper clip
3.scissors

Steps:

1. fold paper 
2. cut paper 
3. do the paper plane test 



Findings:

Plane Type
Distance
Behaviour
Normal
3.3 
it swirled
Ailerons
3.8it swirled

Rudder
2.8it went off coerce


Conclusion: 

the normal plane flu 3.3 meters.
the plane with ailerons flu 3.8 meters.
the plane with rudders flu 2.8 meters.
