Physics Class Boat Project






At the end of the year at maryville high school, the physics class, taught by matt stoecklein, is tasked with building various cardboard boats.. Im doing a cardboard boat project for my physics class...it has to make 20 laps across a pool. our teacher is dumb and says we can only use cardboard and one roll of masking tape...no pantoons.. My aim in the project is to find out the distance traveled by a boat in a particular period of time when a) there is a change in diameter of the propellers and b) there is a change in the number of wings of the propellers..

Styrofoam boat class project? i need to build a styrofoam boat for my physics class. we will be racing them in our school pool. the boat is to be made of styrofoam and duck tape only and must hold 2 people. so this boat has to be fast. also you have. Building a boat for science class can be used to illustrate the ideas of displacement and propulsion. displacement is what makes a boat float. to float, the weight of the boat in the water (and the air in the boat) has to weigh the same as the water it pushes out of the way.. Yes, physics will help you determine what makes one hula hoop a winner and another a flop. in this project, you will create your own hula hoops, spin them, and draw conclusions. the road will then be open to your becoming a hula hoop expert..

Paradox Sailboat Plans

The boat has already exceeded my expectations, and i look forward to many more adventures with it. click on that microcruising link under the sketch to get more information on the paradox, microcruising , dave and mindy’s adventures in little cruiser or to order plans.. These plans are presented here soley for inspiration. they are not intended to be used to build another paradox, and this website nor the original author make any promises as to their accuracy or their suitability for any purpose whatsoever.. I have the plans and don elliot's build manual, but this novice builder still has many questions. i have posted them on the paradox forum on yahoo, and everyone has been very helpful. they are a great source of information, and always willing to help..

Handy Billy Boat Plans

The handy billy story: ever since reading about harry bryans’ handy billy designs in wooden boat magazine in the late 1990’s we have thought that these boats looked so good and made such good sense that we wanted to build one. in 2001, after owning the boatyard for a year, we purchased a set of plans for the 21 foot handy billy.. Thank you for considering my plans for bowler, a “cruising” version of my top hat launch. these boats are descended from harry bryan’s inspired handy billy design, which in turn can trace it’s origins back to william hand's vee bottom designs from the early 20th century.. The woodenboat forum is sponsored by woodenboat publications, publisher of woodenboat magazine. the forum is a free service, and much like the "free" content on public radio, we hope you will support woodenboat by subscribing to this fabulous magazine.. ...

Sailboat Upkeep Cost

Annual maintenance is roughly 10 percent of the cost of the boat, estimates bloomberg.com. that includes painting the hull every year, cleaning the deck, and replacing the sails every few years. so for a $20,000 boat, that 10 percent comes to $2,000 annually.. The costs of sailboat maintenance the costs of sailboat maintenance owning and maintaining a sailboat can be costly because they require constant upkeep and high quality parts and equipment. there is not an exact figure that applies to every sailboat.. Then there’s the cost of cleaners, teak oils, wax, and polish. don’t scoff. these items aren’t cheap, and over the course of a season you may spend a lot more than you expected on them. as a rule of thumb, plan on setting aside 10-percent of the boat’s value, to cover annual maintenance costs.. 27 photos show the extrem...
