Forces Investigations - Air Resistance.


 We have been busy scientists this week. We have been conducting lots of investigations into a range of forces. In this lesson we investigated air resistance.

We tried to feel the effects of air resistance by running as we were and then we ran holding onto a cardboard box. We could feel the power of the air resistance force when we ran with the cardboard in comparison to running as we were. We then used what we learned about air resistance to design a paper aeroplane. We then tested what variables effected how good our aeroplanes were.
