Lab #2

Today for my second lab I worked with Maddy. We were instructed to create a parachute that could stay in the air while having a hair dryer blowing under it. At first we made a very small parachute with small strings, but the object were trying to lift was to heavy and the hair dryer could no hold it up. we decided to make a bigger parachute with londer strings, because the little one was not catching the air well enough. The bigger one worked really well and was really steady. we tryed it of of the stairs for a longer fall and it flew perfectly with a few minor movments side to side. so we diceded to cut a small hole in the top to see if we could make it perfectly smooth. it worked. unfortunatly we ran out of time. I would have liked to have made more parachutes and try different technics to make them fly smoother like making a bigger whole.
