FLIGHT

Aim: To learn about flight and aerodynamics. 

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

Definition:


4 forces of flight: 
  • Weight 
  • Lift 
  • Thrust
  • Drag 


Paper Plane:

Material:

1.  paper 
2.  ruler 
3    paper clip
Steps:

1.  make the plane 
2.  cut the wings 
3.  fly it


Findings:

Conclusion:
that a plane will go even more if it dose not have drag on it
