A scale model parachute will be designed and constructed to fall safely for the attached LEGO man to survive the parachute will provide enough air resistance to counteract gravity. One reason there is science in this problem is if the parachute goes to fast and kills the LEGO man to make the parachute go slower the parachute would have to be improved. Also, if parachute would be improved based on things such as how to make the air resistance greater making the parachute slower. Another, things…
Analysis/Discussion: This graph above shows that different heights does affect the speed of a shuttlecock. On the x axis, the data is the height of where the shuttlecock is dropped from, while the y axis is the average speed (m/s). The height where the shuttlecock is dropped increases, as the average speed of each height increases as well. The result of the graph is shown that the line keeps on increasing even if it is not a straight line graph. These results support my hypothesis, which states…
I chose the Chapter One “On Folded Wings” project because ever since I was a kid I always loved using paper to make all sorts of things, including shapes, cards, airplanes, and boats. Creating and designing things is always fun, and when you are a kid paper is one of the most abundant materials you could have to make whatever you like. However, my motor skills were not up to the challenge of making complex origami designs, but now, I think I’m ready to give it a shot. I want to show in this…

Being born with only one wing unheard of in the land of Blossom City. Living with one wing did not affect Freya as a child because she did not know anything different.

throughout the book she maintains four strong character traits: naivety, strength, eloquence, and spontaneity. She is the sister of May, who is now deceased. The reason she is "the fairy with broken wings" is because Laurel enjoys talking about how she and May used to pretend they were fairies, and May's wings "shattered" when she died. May also pertains to line five (because she has already lost May) and line eight. The boy with the green eyes represents Sky, Laurel's love interest throughout…
of the delivery times and my recommendations of whether we should offer the “30 minutes’ delivery time or it’s free” deal on football Saturdays.
