1. Y7 Engineering project Science Lesson 1

2. Remember you will be assessed on this work All work to be Done on A4 paper You can add to this project at home

3. By the end of the lesson you should: Be able to identify the forces acting on a object Be able to predict the effect of forces acting on an object Use your knowledge of forces to design an air powered vehicle

4. Outline of lesson Into groups of four Identify the forces acting on an air powered vehicle forces.etforces.et Predict the effect of changing the forces on how the air powered vehicle moves Forces.docForces.doc Observe air powered vehicles – Scrap heap Challenge DVD (hovercraft challenge) Work in groups to design an air powered vehicle – who will do what?

5. Homework Draw your own design idea for an air powered vehicle using the materials listed
