Introduction
Our groups vision is to create a rocket that can reach
the length of the target assigned...

Process...
Rocket Body
Tube - Too narrow and carry lots of weight
Water Bottle - Perfect size, easy to find and much lighter
Launcher
Adjustable - Kept the 45 but can still be able to rotates 360
Convenience - Easy to carry around; lightweight and can be handle easily
Durable - strong; withstand the strength of the rockets movement
Good Base - Gain a stable balance
Unique - Different design incorporating creativity
Objective
Concepts Objectives
- Velocity
- Acceleration
- DIstance
- Time
- Principles of Aerodynamics

Methods (assembling rocket)
Launch Rocket Rocket :
The Launch Path:
1) Putting clay inside the rocket head.
1) Connect all the pvc to make 3 face of hexagon for 2) Using tape to hold the cone with the bottle.
the both side 3) Cutting the future boards to make wing.
2) Connect both side together by using the long tube 4) Using duct tape to stick fins with the bottle.
connect at the upper middle
3) Connect the Pvc to produce the Y shape
4) Connect with the base that we have done before
this will make the base for the rocket.
5) Paste the launcher path which is the form sheet at
the middle of the Y shape and then glue it to the
PVC
Procedures
During the experiment :
-
ET
Aerodynamic Features
- Exterior Appearance
- The error occurred because the reaction is not complete. Some of the
reagent was left over and also some of the product which is the carbon
dioxide gas was leaked, so the rocket cant fly as far as the theoretical
calculation.
- In order to improve the accuracy, we need to use a cock that is best fit
to the bottle in order to make sure that there will be no gas leaking out
of the bottle, so that the density of the gas in the rocket will produce at
the point where it will perfectly lands on the target, and we can make
the chemical reaction more accurate.
Discussion
Newtons Three law of motion
1 st law - A rocket will remain in its place until the external force
acting on it.
3 rd law - The action force of the carbon dioxide inside the bottle
rushes out creates an equal and opposite reaction force propelling
the rocket upward.
Discussion
Linear motion (freefall)
- After rocket has launched and reached the highest point it will begin
a free fall which the force will depend of the gravity.
Projectile
- Rocket flew in the air creating a parabola which mean that the
rocket move in the projectile motion.
- All moving object will have the energy called kinetic energy (KE).
The KE of an objects is depends on its mass and speed by the
equation mv^2.
- There was only one trial that landed inside the target and the rest arent. Some flew over
the target and some didnt reach the target.
The Error
- Not enough solution in order to make it place directly on the target, this is the main
problem Example trial 1, 2, 10, and 11
- some error in adjusting the degree Example trial 9 (The rocket change for a long time and
it went really far)
- The wind blew strongly, or it might happen because some trial the angle of the rocket is
too low or too high
- The rocket body might resist to the wind and this will cause resistance to the moving of
the rocket.

Conclusion
Expectations:
- Landing on the Target
- Using reasonable amount of chemicals
Importance:
- Cork
- Tighten it
- Too Loose: Leakage of chemicals
- Too tight: Difficulty in launching
