SMART FLIERS

The purpose of my
experiment is to find out
which paper airplane
design flies the farthest
length. My hypothesis is
that a plane with wide
wings will fly farther.
!
To conduct this
experiment, the
materials I needed were
paper, measuring tape,
tape, and a notepad.
Hereʼs the procedure.
First, I designed a paper
airplane with the paper.
Then, I marked my
standing point (where
Iʼm throwing the plane)
with the tape. I threw the
plane and marked the
stopping with another
strip of tape. Last, I
measured the distance
between the two tapes
and wrote it down on
the notepad. I
repeated the steps
with other planes.
!
Hereʼs some
facts about my
experiment. My
dependent variable is
the flight of the plane.
My independent
variable are the
designs. The constant
variable is the type of
p a p e r. M y r e s u l t s
showed that a lot a
narrow winged planes
flew the farthest.
!
My conclusion is
narrow winged planes
fly the farthest since my
results did not match
my results. I learned
that wider wings have
more drag tha
