We created pages for our weebly site. We did this to explain what we did or will do for each step. Also so if anyone needs help at any part they could possibly look here.
Today we finished launching and measuring our rockets. My hypothesis was that my longer rocket would fly farther than my shorter rocket. My hypothesis was wrong, and my shorter rocket outdistanced my longer rocket by a lot. It was wrong because my smaller rocket pocketed more air which caused it to fly further. My longer rockets length caused it to tip over faster because of the weight of the nose.
Today we made a prototype of our prototype rocket. We used two straws and cut them to different lengths. then made a clay tip for each. then we made fins using index cards. We tested how far they would go using a launcher. Then we measured how far each went, we repeated this three times for each. Then we recorded the distance for each
