Topic 4(STEM 2021 TECH)

 Topic 4:


Task 1:


Float: Light,Fly,on the surface of water.

Sink: Heavy, goes down,

Semi Float: Float and sink at same time.



What makes something float or sink?


Buoyancy: Float/sink.

Buoyant:Floats


Positively Buoyant.


Density:

The amount of Mass something has,relative to its volume.


Archimedes Principle:


Basketball has air so it can float.


Rolling ball has Mass so it will sink.


Task 2:


Float or Sink- Buoyancy Experiments


Aim or Purpose: Predict and test the buoyancy of objects


Equipment:

  •   A variety of balls

  • Marbles- large and small size

  • Golf ball

  • Table Tennis Ball

  • Tennis Ball

STEM 2021 (TECH2021)

 So at our first day of tech we learnt many new facts about science, like for I learnt the's 5 new science words.

  1. H20

  2. O2

  3. Biology

  4. Carbon dioxide

  5. Chemist


After I found out how a plane flys here is how a plane can fly

How do Planes Fly?


The plane is 500 tones 

Thrust (Geeps the plane moving forward)

Lift (Geeps the plane up)

Drag (is the force that slows the plane down)


When all of these steps are down that is how a plane flys.
