Which Ramp Angle Produces the Fastest Speed?
In this lesson students will discover the best angle that will produce the fastest speed for a hot wheel vehicle when traveling 1 meter. Students will also practice calculating speed (speed=distance/time), measuring the height of the books as well as the angle of the ramp to discover which angle produces the fastest speed.
Students will also write a hypothesis statement using “if”, “then” and “because”, determine the independent and dependent variable, as well as creating a scatter plot graph and conclude which angle produces the fastest speed.

Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions
In this lesson, students will learn about the history of flight and the technological advancements that led to modern aviation. Students will learn about how the study of birds and other flying
Students will create an inclined plane using Pythagorean Theorem and will experiment with rolling objects and try to find a solution to reduce the speed through friction, or air resistance or weight.
