What are your ideas on how to make a mini Sailboat for my Science Class Project!?
here are some things to remeber!
*The project will consist of developing a boat from any material(s). The boat must be a 12 cm (+ or –0.5 cm) long and 6 cm (+ or –0.5 cm) wide at the widest point
*could use plastic straws,wooden splints,aluminum foil,coated paper,etc.
*Final score will be determined based upon success of the boat in the capacity and speed categories and completion of paper.
Model boat kits are not allowed.
*Two competitions will involve the boats. The winner of the cargo (buoyancy) competion will be determined by which boat will support the most mass (pennies) without taking on water (flowing over the sides) or touching the bottom The other competion will involve sailboats by blowing it with a fan and using glass stiring rods to keep it in the right direction.
*there will be 10 pennies on board while sailing
Thanks
