The S in STEM
What is Science?
Protects the eyes during flight
What are googles?
A push or a pull
What is a force?
Constant shape and volume
What is a solid?
Location of fans
What is above the flight chamber?
The T in STEM
What is Technology?
Protects hearing during flight
What are ear plugs?
The force between two objects. This is what keeps us on the ground, causes objects to fall, etc
What is gravity?
Changing shape but constant volume
What is liquid?
The job of the "driver"
What is controls the wind?
The E in STEM
What is Engineering?
Protects the head during flight
What is a helmet?
When forces are balanced and an object reaches its "top speed"
What is terminal velocity?
Changing shape and changing volume
What is gas?
This is what we call "bumpy" air flow
What is turbulence?
The M in STEM
What is Math?
This should fit big and baggy
What is flight suit?
The best body position for flying in the wind tunnel
What is big/spread out?
Two states of matter that are considered fluids
What are liquids and gases?
Type of wind tunnel where the air is recirculated
What is closed loop?
A person who designs and builds complex products, machines, systems, or structures. They have scientific training that they use to make practical things.
What are engineers?
This is spring loaded and made of steel
What is safety net?
Two things that affect how fast the wind needs to move to make an object fly
What are mass and frontal area? (or weight and size)
Forms droplets in the wind tunnel
What is water?
