Building a PaddlePop Stick Boat…??
For my PHYSICS assesment i am required to build a boat (not a sailboat) out of superglue, paddlepop sticks and tin foil. What do i need to think about and what rules would apply if i needed to old 3kg on the boat. PLEASE HELP!! I am not a science person and am struggling. I have to fill in a log book. Please tell me what the rules are etc such as Displacement?
thanks heaps! i will give best answer to most helpful person
The boat will displace a weight of water equal to the weight of the boat and it’s cargo.
If the boat and cargo weigh 10 kg it will have to be at least as big as 10 kg of water, pluss a little freeboard above the water.
