Gravity and Air Resistance
We've got stuck in to Challenge Week this week, learning all about forces! We've learned about gravity, friction and air resistance.
Can you make a parachute for one of your toys/figures?
You can use any material to make your parachute - some ideas are paper, coffee filters or plastic bags,
Some questions to guide you:
- What happens if you make a larger or smaller parachute?
- What happens if you change the shape of the parachute?
- What happens if you hang a heavier or lighter object in the parachute?
- What happens if you make a hole in the middle of the parachute?
You'll need to drop it from somewhere high to create drag. Be careful with this!
Remember to take a picture or video so you can share it with the class
