Investigating Air Resistance in 5M

Lesson: Science

Our current area of study in science is physics and we have been learning about forces. Here we are investigating air resistance by designing and testing different parachutes. We were careful to identify one independent variable, which we would change, while ensuring all the controlled variables remained the same. We measured the effects of changing the independent variable on the dependent variable, in this case the time which it took the parachute to fall to the ground.
