wind racers/ sail boats

Aim: I want to find out how to make a wind vehicle with sails to see how the forces change.

Discussion

Pressure gradients affect wind racers because it helps airflow go from a higher pressure to a lower pressure.

Coriolis Force affects wind because it deflects the wind direction from your expected path.

friction can change the wind’s direction to go slower on an expected path.

The wind is air that is moving. Air is made of tiny particles called molecules we cannot see. Wind makes objects move because the molecules in the air hit the objects and move them.

are they balanced? No wind sailers are unbalanced. 

what forces are there? Wind racers use horizontal lift forces from pressure and different water and wind speeds keeping the wind racers’ direction.

what is net force and how does this relate to your wind sail? the mass of the object. net force will change its velocity by changing either its speed or its direction or both.

what are the strength forces acting on high-speed winds?

why do you think their sails went slower than others? Because there were many other designs that were made, some having more 

The term “healing” describes how the wind’s force on the sails causes the boat to lean or tilt. While heeling to some extent is normal and helps with speed, too much heeling can negatively impact the boat’s efficiency and stability.

DNA extraction

aim i want to find out how to get DNA from a banana

method

  1. mush some bananas (no skin) in a zip lock bag with a splash of water and small teaspoon of salt
  2.   strain the solution through a small cloth into a beaker
  3.   add a squirt of dishwashing liduid and stir
  4. pour into a test tube and leave for 10 mins
  5.  slowly pour 5ml of ethonal in the test tube
  6. wait a few minutes and then pull the stick out to see the dna

equipment

  • beaker
  • banana
  •  plastic bag
  • test tube
  • stiring rod
  • salt
  • water
  • dishwashing liqud
  • warm water
  • ethenol
  • cloth
  • saftey glasses

discussion 

after letting the DNA set for awhile we put a stick in the test tube and pulled it out to see DNA all over the stick

beeswax wraps

Hello, 

 In soft materials we have been learning about sustainability this week we made beeswax. We had to make a blog about why they are good for the environment and how to make them.

Beeswax wraps are used to keep food stored and fresh. They also help the environment by not using plastic wrap or aluminum foil plastic and foil are non biodegradable meaning it can cause drain blockage, pollution and hurt sea animals. Non biodegradable plastic can take 20 – 50 years to decompose depending on sun exposure and environmental factors. Beeswax wraps are made out of cotton and beeswax wraps can last up to a year if you keep them clean.

Making the beeswax wraps are simple all you have to do is peel the beeswax chunks and cut out a piece of cotton using pinking shears after that sprinkle the peeled beeswax all over the cotton not using to much otherwise it will spill out the sides, put a piece of baking paper on top and get the iron and push outwards from the middle making sure all the beeswax is melted when so take it off the baking paper and let it dry.

Washing the wraps is as easy as making the beeswax wraps use cold water and soap, sponging the leftover crumbs off the wraps and leaving to drip dry.

 

 

 

Hello,

In our class we have been talking about emotions and how to cope with difficult situations, we have done blookets and many worksheets over the past week and we have been working on multiple different dilemmas.

I choose dilemma number 6 “prue had unprotected sex at a party when she was drunk. She was embarrassed and didn’t tell anyone for a few days afterwards, by then it was too late for her to use emergency contraception (morning after pill).  

On the other side of the worksheet we explained how they might be feeling, how their body language looks and what advice you would give. we had to explain it from both perspectives. 

Question one asks (how might she be feeling) I wrote scared, nervous and guilty. I think that because she might be young and doesn’t know where to get the help that she needs and I think she might be guilty because she might not have told the boy or feels like she made a mistake. Another question states (how would you stay positive in a rough situation like that) i always think it’s best to keep your mind off things and do something you enjoy.
