Names of Team Members
Brief explanation of what you are
presenting, ex How the flight of rockets
relates to Newton's Laws etc
Reproduce Launch Data
Be sure also to record mass of rocket with engine and without
engine.
Picture of Your Rocket, working on rocket, etc
Video of Your Flight
Show Calculations
for Altitude
Graphing Using One Station Tracking
Show calculations for Average Speed as the rocket is
ascending and descending.
Show calculation for acceleration ascending
Assume initial velocity=0m/s
What is the acceleration on the descent?
Newton's First Law of Motion
Explain 1st Law and how it pertains to your rocket's flight.
Newton's 2nd Law
Explain 2nd law
Calculate the force of your rocket-ascending and descending.
Newton's 3rd Law
Explain 3rd law and relate it relate to your rocket's flight.
KE,GPE, Work, Momentum, Impact
Speed
Calculate, KE, GPE, Work, Impact Speed and Momentum
KE- calculate during ascension
GPE- at apogee
Work- calculate during ascension
Momentum- calculate during descension
Impact Speed- we are disregarding air friction
