Wings That Work
Blake M.
The purpose of this experiment was to find out which shape of wing has the least amount of drag. To test the amount of drag on wings a wind tunnel was built. The four wings that were used were made of very thin cardboard. Each wing was attached to the wind tunnel by two pieces of thread. The top piece of thread was attached to the force measurer. When the fan was turned on, each wing gave no detectable results for each of the four trials.
