in class, we have been making rockets. Over the last 7 weeks, we have been learning with a guy and he taught us about aerodynamics and Issac newtons laws of physics.
We used plastic bottles, and we cut out fins with ice cream containers. I learnt that the rocket flies differently, the more different the wings are. our wings were too big, and the rocket didn't go that far, I think it was because of the fins shape, I think if we made them smaller and put them further down the bottle it would have gone further.
Before we blasted the rockets off, we connected the rockets to a nozzle and filled them up with 300ML of water, then we pumped the air into the rocket 60PSI, then we counted down from 5 and on 0 it blasted off.
I am a student at Ōtaki College in Ōtaki, NZ. My blog is a place where I will be able to share some of my learning. Please note....some work won't be edited - they are just my first drafts, so there may be some errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas on my posts.
