1. Investigation of a Paper Airplane’s Performance

2. Performance of the Initial Design {Insert a picture of your scatter plot on this slide}

3. Performance of the Initial Design The mean distance travelled was ____ m with a mean deviation of ____ m. The mean distance travelled sideways was ___ m (left or right) with a mean deviation of ___ m. This led to a mean velocity of ____ m/s with an error of _____ m/s at an angle of ____ degrees. The actual percent error on the velocity was _____.

4. Paper Airplane Modification We modified our airplane by (fill in your modification here). We performed this modification in an attempt to improve (insert why you did this modification). We think that this will improve the stated performance because (insert your reasoning for the modification – why do you think it will improve your performance).

6. Performance of the Modified Design The mean distance travelled was ____ m with a mean deviation of ____ m. The mean distance travelled sideways was ___ m (left or right) with a mean deviation of ___ m. This led to a mean velocity of ____ m/s with an error of _____ m/s at an angle of ____ degrees. The actual percent error on the velocity was _____.

7. Analysis of the Data Based on our experiment, the data (supports/does not support/does not prove/disprove) a performance gain in our paper airplane as a result of the modification.
