Angle of Propulsion
by Angela Rico
Students will design a balloon rocket. They will then create a fish line track for the rocket to follow. The track will be able to me modified to test different angles of ascent. This will allow students to discover by calculating the rate of ascent, which angle creates the best ascent rate.
