This program uses jet engines to present a variety of math and physics problems. Rate and force problems of different levels of difficulty are included. These are targeted for the high school student. The rate problems deal with how far and how long an airplane can fly on a given amount of fuel. The force problems deal with Newton's laws of motion on takeoff.
Graphical feedback is given for each answer choice.
With this software you can investigate how a model rocket flys by changing the values of different design variables. If you experience difficulties when using the sliders to change variables, simply click away from the slider and then back to it. If the arrows on the end of the sliders disappear, click in the areas where the left and right arrow images should appear, and they should reappear.
