Students understand the importance of safe launch procedures. Students use mathematical procedures to determine flight telemetry. Students use a vertical wind tunnel to determine the amount of drag associated with various rocket designs. Students design a rocket that will remain stable and perform to specifications.
Students use a propulsion monitor to find the optimal fill level of a bottle rocket.
Students calculate the rocket s thrust, duration, acceleration, and velocity. Both rockets must have a certain weight and height and should reach a certain altitude. Both rockets must have a certain weight and height and should reach a certain altitude. Both rockets must have a certain weight and height and should reach a certain altitude. The students' Suite Team in Aerospace Rocketry takes on the challenges of designing, building, testing and launching a water-powered rocket.
