Flight - Paper



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. 
Image result for flight forces

Definition:
the action or process of flying through the air.

4 forces of flight:

  1. Gravity   
  2. Thurst
  3. Drag
  4. Lift  

Paper Plane:

Material:

1. Paper
2. paper clip

Steps:

1. create a paper plane.
2. Throw it.
3. Cut litte flaps into the wing's redo step 2

Findings:


Plane Type
Distance
Behavior
Normal


2.2mcurved
Ailerons


2.6mlooped
Paper clip


3.2mswooped

Conclusion:
The normal plane type went the shortest length because of the science of gravity.
Ailerons Plane's length was 2.6
