What part of the plane controls the yaw?

rudder

15

Where is the rudder located?

On the vertical stabilizer, on the back of the tail/fin.

What is the benefit of using a prototype when working on a project?

It allows you target areas that need improvement and make minor changes alone the way. It saves money and time.

What does Newton's First Law say about inertia?

An object at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon by another force.

20

Newton says that two factors affect acceleration. What are they?

1. The mass of an object 2. The size of a force acting on the mass

25

What is the equation in Newton's second law:

F = m * a (Force equals mass times acceleration)

20

In Newton's equation F = m * a, what does the F stand for?

Force

10

In Newton's equation F = m * a, what does the m stand for?

mass

10

In Newton's equation F = m * a, what does the a stand for?

acceleration

10

How would you describe Newton's second law using this picture?

A greater force is required to move a larger mass.

20

How would you describe Newton's first law using this picture?

The ball will only move if you kick it. Once it's moving, it will keep on moving until the net stops it (acteed upon by another force.)

25

How does Newton's cradle explain his third law?

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. One ball will cause one ball on the other end to move. Two balls will cause two balls to move. Etc.
