 * There are different ways to throw paper airplanes depending on the type of plane made.They can be thrown underhand or overhand,but usually the nose of the plane points upward.
 * Paper airplanes are usually made symmetrically, so that they can fly better than if they had uneven wings or an uneven body.
 * The flat or dull nose of a paper airplane is not easily damaged,so they can be reused.
 * Simple designs of paper airplanes can be just as useful as more complex designs.

**Ask a Question:**
How does the wingspan of a paper airplane affect how it flies?

Hypothesis:
A wider wingspan allows a paper airplane to fly a longer distance.

Independent Variable:
The wingspan of the paper airplane.

Dependent Variable:
The distance that the plane flies.

Constants:
The starting point of the planes, the amount of wind that is apparent as the planes fly.

During the experiment:
==

Results:
The results of our experiment proved that the smaller the wingspan, the farther the planes flew.We were surprised that planes 1 and 3 barely flew very far. They were not balanced very well, so their was probably more resistance against the wingspan of the planes. Plane 2 had a very skinny, but long wingspan, so their was probably less resistance, which allowed the plane to fly further than the others.

Table:
= **Volume Lab** =

Materials:
One flask of blue liquid, one flask of yellow liquid, two graduated cylinders

First, we poured 50mL of the blue liquid into the graduated cylinder(It's temperature was 23.2 degrees celsius).Then, we poured 50 mL of the yellow liquid into another graduated cylinder( It's temperature was 23.4 degrees celsius). Next, we poured the yellow liquid into the graduated cylinder with the blue liquid in it. The liquid turned dark green and its temperature was 27.8 degrees celesius.

= Mass and Volume Lab =

**Question:**
Does the mass of an object affect its volume?

Hypothesis:
**The mass of an object affects its volume.**

**Independent Variable:**
**Mass (g)**

**Dependent Variable:**
**Volume (cm3)**
 * < Object ||< Mass(g) ||< Volume(cm3) ||
 * < Aluminnum Prism ||< 22.9 ||< 8 ||
 * < Nylon Prism ||< 21.5 ||< 20 ||
 * < Nylon Spacer ||< 6.6 ||< 5 ||
 * < Plastic Screw ||< 10.5 ||< 10 ||
 * < Copper Cylinder ||< 56.3 ||< 4 ||

Results:
The mass of an object does not affect its volume, since the objects are made of different materials.

Question:
Does the mass of clay affect its volume?

Hypothesis:
The mass of clay does not affect its volume.

Independant Variable:
Mass(g)

Dependant Variable;
Volume (cm3)

Constant:
Material(clay) of the objects
 * Clay Size # || Mass(g) || Volume(cm3) ||
 * 1(smallest) || 3.4 || 3 ||
 * 2(medium) || 9. || 6 ||
 * 3(Largest) || 21.5 || 13 ||

Results:
This lab proved that the mass of an object will affect its volume if the material of the objects is the same. The mass of each clay piece affected their volumes because the material of each piece was constant.

= Clay Lab Notes and Links: = we decided on this lab because in the last lab we thought about clay and if it floats. We also picked this because when we researched about clay floating in water with different thicknesses, we couldn't find a previous experiment that actually answered our question, so we decided to do our own experiment.

[]

Floating or sinking is based on bouyant force and if the bouyant force is greater than the weight of the object, then it will float. If the bouyant force is less than the weight of the object then the object will sink. With this experiment, we will see if different thicknesses of clay, will float or sink based on the bouyant force that is there.

Question:
Does the thickness of clay affect if it will float or sink?

Hypothesis:
THe clay pieces will sink, no matter the thickness of the piece.

Independent Variable:
The thickness of the clay

Dependent Variable:
If the object floats or sinks

Constants:
The amount of water each clay piece will be placed in, the amount of clay


 * Clay Piece || Mass( g) || Does it Sink ||
 * 1(thinnest) || 33.9 || yes ||
 * 2 || 33.9 || yes ||
 * < 3(thickest) ||< 33.9 ||< yes ||

= Density of a Marble: =
 * Mass of Cup (g) || 1.8 ||
 * Mass of Cup +5 Marbles(g) || 28.8 ||
 * Mass of 5 Marbles (g) || 27 ||
 * Average Mass of Marble (g) || 5.4 ||
 * Density of 5 Marbles (g/cm3) || 2.46 ||
 * Volume of Water (mL) || 50 ||
 * Volume of Water +5 Marbles (mL) || 61 ||
 * Volume of 5 Marbles (mL) || 11 ||
 * Average Volume of a Marble (mL) || 2.2 ||
 * Density of 1 Marble (g/cm3) || 2.46 ||

Summary:
The density of a marble is the same as the density of 5 marbles. The mass of 5 marbles divided by the volume of 5 marbles is the same as the mass of 1 marble divided the volume of 1 marble. This is because density is a characteristic property and it doesn't matter the amount of an object, since it will always be the same.

Question:
How will the mass of a piece of ice compare to its mass after melting?

Hypothesis:
The mass of a piece of ice will be more than its mass after melting.

Independent Variable:
State

Dependent Variable:
Mass (g)

Constants:
Same ice cube (different states)
 * Item || Mass (g) || State ||
 * Bag || 2.9 || Solid ||
 * Ice cube with bag || 17.9 || Solid ||
 * Ice cube || 15 || Solid ||
 * Liquid ice cube with bag || 17.7 || Liquid ||
 * Liquid ice cube || 14.8 || Liquid ||

Summary:
The mass of ice and water is the same because there is the same amount of matter in each object they are just in different states.

Question:
Does a chemical change affect the mass of an object?

Hypothesis:
A chemical change does affect the mass of an object.

Independent Variable:
Chemical change

Dependent Variable:
Mass (g)

Constant:
Alcoceltzer is the chemical being used, same bottle used for the chemical change In the Reaction || Mass Before Change(g) || Mass After Change (g) ||
 * Chemical Used
 * Alcoceltzer || 41.8 || 41.8 ||

Summary:
A chemical change does not affect the mass of an object because the mass of the alcoceltzer before the change was 41.8 grams and the mass of the alcoceltzer after the change was still 41.8 grams.

Question:
Will fanning a thermometer change the temperature?

Hypothesis:
Fanning a thermometer will not change the temperature.

Independent Variable:
Amount of time

Dependent Variable:
Temperature

Constant:

Summary:[[image:mrslagunasclass/thermometer_graph_experiment_1.jpg]]
The temperature of a thermometer is not affected by fanning it because the thermometer doesn't have pores like in the skin of a person that can absorb the cooler air.Therefore, the temperature of the thermometer does not change. = = =Data Studio Lab 2= Question: Will fanning a wet thermometer affect its temperature?
