What is

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. Gravity  
2. Thrust 
3. Lift
4. drag  

Paper Plane:

Material:

1. 
2. 

Steps:

1. 
2. 
3. 

Findings:
[Without clip: 5 meters]
[with clip 4 meters]

Plane Type	Distance	Behavior
Normal	5 meters	Smooth, Straight line
Ailerons	3 meters	Curved
Paper clip	4 meters	Straight line.

Conclusion: The smoother the plane is the more speed it go's. 
The paper plane that was normal flew 5 meters in a Smooth, Straight line.

The paper plane that had ailerons flew 3 meters in a Surved line

The paper plane that had a paper clip flew 4 meters in a Straight line





Water Rocket

Material:

1. 
2.

6. 

Steps:

1. 
2. 
3. 
4. 
5. 
6. 
7. 


Findings:

( Record the distance and the flight behavior of your rocket.)

Fuel Amount	Test 1	Test 2	Test 3
