Wingspan | Flight Distance

LI: to use statistical and scientific methods to study the effect of wing span and area on lift.

This week for maths we have been continuing with our paper planes. This week we studied the wing span and how the flight distance would change depending on the wingspan. In our groups we all had done different tasks. One person would measure, another would record the data, one person would throw the planes at the same strength and another person would be the marker of where the plane landed. On the 5th plane there was a difference between all the others. The difference was that comparing that plane to all the others that specific plane never flew as far. It would've been been how the thrower never threw the plane at the same strength or something was wrong with the plane.
