FLIGHT

Aim: To learn about flight and aerodynamics. 

• In your groups of 2, you will make a paper plane and measure its distance and behavior.
• In groups of 2, you will make a water rocket and record its distance and behavior. 

Definition:


4 forces of flight:

1. lift         

2.gravity

3.drag 

4.thrust

Paper Plane:

Material:

1. paper
2. paper clip

3. ruler

Steps:
 

Findings:

Plane Type	Distance	Behavior
Normal	3.0	Spinning
Ailerons	2.0	Upwards,swooped-up and down
Paper clip	4.0	Straight line.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, I learned that the paper plane with the paperclip flies further because of the fourth the paperclip as pulling it 4.0 Straight line. I learned that ailerons slow the plane down to land 2.0 Upwards,swooped-up and down. the normal plane flew 3.0 Spinning. 

the plane with the ailerons flew the farthest.
