Aim: To make the fastest land yacht and win the competition.
Method:
- Make Fins/Wings out of paper
- Make a sail out of paper
- Use Cupboard as support
Results:
We came second but we could've came first if ours didn't fall over. Our time and distance were kind of close to first place but they could've been way ahead of us if there wasn't anything block their path.
Our distance travelled - 19.8m
Our Time - 15.1 Seconds
Our Velocity - 1.311
1st Place Distance Travelled - 23.2
1st Place Time - 18.12 Seconds
1st Place Velocity - 1.28
Velocity Formula - Velocity = Distance/Time
Discussion
This activity was fun but I wish we got more time to build so we can make ours the fastest.
Conclusion
This activity was kind of hard because there are different factors that affect the balance and speed of the land yacht when your outside cause today it was windy.
