Rocket Project Reminders
The Rocket Project Packet and Report are due at your final. Late work will NOT be accepted.
For the rocket calculations, remember that the horizontal distance to the spotters was 50m and you had the angle from launch day. Using those two numbers you can find the approximate altitude your rocket went.
Hopefully you wrote down which rocket engine you had and all the data you need. Here's a copy of the engine specification chart: http://www.spaar.org/Downloads/Library/EstesEngineSpecs.pdf
We used the following engines: A8-3 and B6-4. You were supposed to write down which one your rocket had.
Instructions for writing the report are in the project packet.
Information on final exams are listed in multiple posts below this one. Do not wait until the day of the final to ask questions.
Good luck and see you at the final.
