    We had couple different designs. We first had the original paper helicopter design. We cut a line through 2/3 of the index card and fold them. Then we had a different design which is more effective: a cylindrical cone that has rectangles of wings taped to its base. We predicted that more wings the cylindrical cone has would cost it faster time to land. First, we tested the drop with the helicopter that has seven wings. It ended up with an average of 2.75 seconds. We were confused, caused that didn’t follow the rule of “the greater the mass, less the acceleration.” Then, we took away one wing and tested then it ended up with an average of 2.74 seconds. In the end, we took away one more wing and tested. It ended up with an average of 2.90 seconds. Then we tested it out by adding paperclips onto a seven-winged helicopter. Without any paperclips, the result is 2.75 seconds. Then we added a paperclip, the result was 2.90 seconds.In the end, we added two paperclips to the helicopter which was 2.46 seconds. By then we realized because of our helicopter’s unique design, the changes of small masses didn’t affect as much it should have, however the way you drop helicopter could really affect its flight. Therefore following the rule of F(force)=Ma(mass times acceleration), the more mass you added onto the helicopter, the longer time it will take. We didn’t do a good job on dropping it and our…

    As you can see based on this graph the time the rock will hit the ground is roughly in 4.3 seconds. We can find the exact value by plugging in 0 for H (height), 0 = -16t^2 + 300. We then subtract 300 from both sides and get -300 = -16t^2. We then divide by -16 on both sides and get 18.75 = t^2. Finally we take the square root on both sides or ^ (1/2) and find the time to be 4.330127 seconds.…

    Vertical Motion Model

    The problem I created was based on Hope Solo and her soccer skills. Hope kicks the ball back at an initial height of 3 feet, and a vertical velocity at 20 feet per second. The equation to this problem would be h(t)= -16t2 + 20t + 3. This shows how 20 would be the velocity, and 3 would be the initial height. The problem would ask us for the equation, time the ball would hit the ground in seconds, time the ball was in the air at 5ft, and the maximum height of the ball. In order to find at what time the ball would hit the floor, we need to find zero in the calculator. First step into solving this problem is plugging in the equation into the calculator. You will the need to find zero under the x-axis, in trace zero. The calculator will ask you for left and right bound. The ball would then hit the ground at 1.4 seconds. Next, the problem asked for the…
