Effect Of Paper Thickness On Distance
Procedural Recount
Aim
To analyze the effect of paper thickness on the distance covered by a paper plane.
Hypothesis
The thinner the paper the further the paper plane would glide so it would cover a larger distance. This is because of the smaller gravity force acting on the paper plane made out of the thinner paper, since the mass of this plane is smaller.
Apparatus
Tape measurer
Blue tack
6 sheets of different types of paper (office paper, paper towel, cardboard of different thickness and recycled paper)
Method
1. Six sheets paper which were 15cm by 21cm were taken
2. Each of the sheets of paper were folded into "Nick's plane"
3. Then someone stood on a marked spot where the experiment was performed.
4. The planes got thrown and it glided in the air
5. Blue tack was as a marking on the place where the plane landed
6. Steps 3,4 and 5 were repeated five times
7. Distance was measured from marked standing spot to blue tack
8. Steps 3 to 7 were repeated......
