Students will be able to build a rocket and learn hands-on about free fall and projectile motion. The purpose is to introduce the physics behind projectile motion, simple aerodynamics, and drag. Projectile motion is a scientific principle that almost everyone has witnessed. You may not have realized it at the time, however. For instance, simple tasks such as throwing a baseball involve the unique properties and dimensions of projectile motion. If you were to throw a baseball from left field to home plate, how would you do it? At what angle would you release the ball? What path would the ball follow?
