Year 5's Air Resistance Experiments

Year 5 carried out an air resistance experiment based on our Science topic of Forces. We developed a question as a class of whether two parachutes of different surface areas would land at the same time if dropped from the same height. 

We used plastic bags, cellotape and strings to create our parachute. We then tested it by dropping it from the same height, ensuring it was a fair test. 

The results were amazing!
