Make many versions of the object to test its performance and the extent that it meets the
criteria - Answer✔Prototype
Test the prototypes to determine the best version of the object - Answer✔Test
Share your design process and your final result - Answer✔Share
Lift, weight, drag, thrust - Answer✔The 4 Forces of Flight
As the velocity of a fluid increases, the pressure exerted by the fluid decreases. Because of the
curvature of a wing, the air flowing over the top of the wing moves faster than the air
underneath. This creates an area of low pressure above the wing. Fluids move from areas of
high to low pressure, so the wing is pushed up by this movement of air. - Answer✔Bernoulli's
Principle
Deflection, Newton's Laws of Motion, Coanda Effect, Bernoulli's Principle - Answer✔Ways An
Object Can Produce Lift
a phenomenon in hydrodynamics whereby a fluid in motion may be attracted or held to a wall -
Answer✔Coanda effect
1. An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force, and an object
in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. (Inertia)
2. Acceleration is produced when a force acts on mass and the greater the mass of the object
being accelerated, the greater the amount of force needed to accelerate that object.
