Year 5 Orchard Class - Parachutists at top speed!

Orchard class have learning about forces in Science this term. We investigated air resistance on parachutes and made our own to test. We tested three different sizes – small, medium and large. 

We understood the role of air resistance from our investigation and recognised that surface area affects the speed at which objects fall.

 Can you guess which one was the fastest?
