Task - 

Choose an experiment to test two different forces acting on an object. You could choose to:

-Make a parachute and see which items you can attach to your parachute so that it still works. Does the shapes of the parachute affect it?

-Make a boat and see how many items you can put into it before it starts to sink. Does the shape of the boat affect it?

-Make a paper airplane and see if it can still fly when you put things into it. Does the style of paper airplane affect it?

-Push a toy car over a different surfaces and see how long it take to stop. Does the size of the toy car affect it?
