Our new science topic is natural disasters that are in the news. We are doing a science experiment it is what might affect how emergency aids are sent and what effects it by the weight, by what type of parachute or the place it is going to land . We all think the height of the drop will effect it.
Some of us think it is going to take less time or it is going to take more time from the height it is dropped from. Here are some of the things we are going to keep the same. The parachute is the same the landing place is going to be the same. The weight is going to be the same and the same weather.
We have made our parachute it has a bag for the top of the parachute then some string to hold the aid box to the parachute. We are going to measure the time between the aid to drop then to landing.
We are going to go over to Chryston High school and we are going to drop it from the balcony. The rest of the class is going to be downstairs and two of our class members and an adult will go up to the balcony and drop the parachute while the rest of the class will be timing the experiment.
We will be doing the experiment this afternoon wish us luck.
