Terminal Velocity of a Sphere in Liquid
Quantifying the settling velocity (terminal velocity) of a spherical particle in a liquid is of importance because it relates to areas in industry that process and transport suspensions of particles.

The Math of Missiles and Rockets
Throwing an object across the classroom is an example of a parabolic trajectory. Students will be able to experiment with a tennis ball, with paper and later on, with a constructed mini-rocket. The results and the effects of the different sizes and shapes of the objects will be recorded.
