Air Resistance and Parachute Design Activity

It is a parachute’s job to cause as much air resistance as possible by trapping as much air as

it can.

What do you think happens to the speed of a falling object the greater the air resistance it

has?

AIR It will slow down!

The bigger something is, the more air resistance there will be pushing against it.

Your Challenge:

Design a parachute

Examples of materials:

• Plastic bag

• String

• Paper

• Masking tape

Remember:

the bigger the parachute = the more air resistance

Checklist:

• Make your parachute and attach to a small figure (if possible)

• Test your parachute – the higher you stand the more accurate the reading.

• Drop the parachute at least two or three times to get an average.

You will need:

• 1 person to drop the parachute

• 1 person to time the parachute using a stopwatch

Remember: Use a ruler to measure so that everything is the same. Be precise!

Best of luck ☺

Write the following headings and fill in:

Materials used:

Draw a labelled diagram

Height dropped from:

Times recorded:

Answer the following question:

To keep your parachute up longer, what would you do next time?

Send a picture of your parachute to me on Seesaw.

Music June 4th 2020 The Arrival of the Queen of Sheba By G.F. Handel German-born George Frideric Handel was living in London when this piece was first performed, almost 300 years ago. From having listened to this piece a few times, you will have noticed that it’s made up of two main parts, the strings followed by two of the same woodwind instruments.

1. Do you prefer the parts where the strings play or the parts where the woodwind play? 2. You will have noticed some very well-dressed people sitting behind the musicians. Who do you think they are? 3. Going back to the string instruments, are they being plucked or bowed? 4. Of the four main instruments in the string family, are they all being used in this piece? 5. What instrument is being played at 2min 56 seconds? 6. What is the job title of the man facing the musicians? 7. When the musicians aren’t looking at their music sheets, who or what are they looking at?
