Balsa Glider Project
Assignment #2
An APA paper
must be submitted which includes the following sections (with headings):
Prototype Description
Construction
Tools.
Materials.
Description
Flight Test Method
Results
Discussion
The second
assignment is meant to record the construction and flight testing of your
glider. This paper, like the first, is to be APA formatted (to include a Title
Page). As before, no abstract is necessary. No reference page is necessary
since you are doing hands on research for this assignment. Your goal during
flight testing is to maximize the range of your glider through trial and error.
This must include a table of measurements of glide distance and calculations of
glide ratio. The results section should also include average glide distance and
average glide ratio. The discussion section should include your thoughts on the
flight testing process: problems encountered, your assessment of the problem,
corrective actions taken and projection of your gliders distance when thrown
from a height of 19ft. As before,
this paper is to be submitted into a D2L dropbox by the stated deadline.
