Science of Flight
The name of all vehicles that fly in the air.
What is an aircraft?
This simple machine uses a bar and fulcrum to lift loads.
What is a lever?
A push or pull that can make an object move, stop moving, or change direction.
What is a force?
This machine is used to make 3 dimensional objects.
What is a 3D printer?
This program was used to code our micro bits.
What is Make Code?
This force of flight allows aircrafts to accelerate through the air.
What is thrust?
A wheelchair ramp is an example of this simple machine.
What is an inclined plane?
A device made of two or more simple machines.
What is a compound machine?
This is the CAD we used to make our 3D designs.
What is TinkerCAD?
There are 25 of these on the micro bit.
What are LEDs?
An airplane has this, but a glider does not.
What is an engine?
Scissors contain these two simple machines.
What is a lever and wedge?
A pocket-sized computer.
What is a Micro:bit?
This goes into the 3D printer, is heated, and comes out of the nozzle to create the 3D design.
What is filament?
All of you wanted to add this to your code and Mrs. Bavs and Mrs. Cicero said, "Please don't."
What is music?
The structure on an aircraft that prevents up and down motion of the aircraft nose.
What is a horizontal stabilizer?
A force applied to move an object over a distance.
What is effort force?
Two forces that are not equal in size acting in opposite directions on an object.
What is an unbalanced force?
This must be done before printing to ensure your design stays together.
What is grouping?
These are put together in Make Code to create a code.
What are blocks?
The body of an airplane.
What is a fuselage?
A force that opposes the direction of motion.
What is resistance force?
CAD stands for this...
What is computer-aided design?
LED stands for this.
What is light emitting diode?
Push this button to clear the micro bit of a previous code.
What is the reset button?
