Hi all,
I couldn't upload the graphs themselves into this blog. However after plotting graphs of velocity vs time for 3 different rockets, I obtained accelerations of
313 m/s/s
170 m/s/s
337 m/s/s
There were a total of 5 rockets launched with different mixtures, which were:
1. 1/3 water
2. half full
3. 3/4 water
4. all air
5. way too overpowered
Discuss which ones you think match these accelerations and why. We will analyze in class tomorrow.
