Ping Pong Parachute - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Physics
        
        Velocity
        
        Rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time
        
        How fast the ping pong launches and how much is needed so it can last longer
        
        Air Resistance
        
        Force caused by air
        
        The force acts in the opposite direction to an object moving through the air
        
        Parachute creates air resistance to drift toward the ground slowly and safely
        
        Gravity
        
        Invisible force that pulls objects toward each other
      - Chemistry
        
        Pressure
        
        Continuous physical force exerted on or against an object by something in contact with it
        
        Air pressure inside the rocket pushes the parachute to launch
    - - Engineering
        
        Is concerned of the design and building
        
        We will requiere engineering for the construction and sketch of the rocket and parachute
        
        Testing technical difficulties and advantages
- - - - A 1/2-inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe must fit tightly inside the nozzle opening
    - - Only tape is allowed to attach fins, and no metal nor commercial rocket parts can be used
    - - Height must be under 1.6 cm
  - - - No water, explosives, pyrotechnics, electrical devices, remote controls, etc
- - - - 3 required parameters
        
        Hight (feet)
        
        Estimated or recorded
        
        Distance between the ground and the highest point of the parachute launch
        
        Time (seconds)
        
        How long the parachute lasts in the air
        
        Pressure (psi)
        
        Force per unit area inside the rocket
      - 2 additionals
        
        Fins
        
        Use tu provide stability during the flight
        
        Parachute perimeter
        
        Parachute perimeter: Size of the parachute
        
        Parachute: a piece of equipment made of a large piece of special cloth that is fastened to a thing t to slow down the drop
- - - - Every launch is recorded and in hundreds for ties
- - - - If not, they can´t compete
  - - - It must attach to the launcher provided by the Event Supervisor
