The project’s focus is to create an understanding of basic aerodynamics, simple machines, energy, its types, and its conversion from one form to another form. The activity relates to how a rubber band’s elastic energy is converted into mechanical energy to drive a simple propelling mechanism and basic aerodynamic structure to make a glider by using paper, balsa wood, sticking glue, and a propeller.

Learning outcomes

  • The activity addresses the fundamentals of energy and its conversion into different forms.
  • It describes the basics of aircraft structure and the simple mechanics to make a glider.
  • Understanding of the combination of simple machines and energy to perform a specific task.
