Year Nine Experimental Research Phase One: Research Proposals Science

June 9, 2016 / / 7 Comments

Hi, I am Obai Ermak. I use to be a student of the London Nautical School and i loved science back then. I did not just love science, but I was interested on this experiment from that moment. I remember my teacher telling (Omission) me  to work hard and improve it. I listened to her words and did what she said. This act brought me to this position.

Dear Head of RAF,

(New line please) I am more than pleased to introduce to you my experiment that I was writing about. As you know, all of RAF helicopters are in risk off getting shot down and crashing before giving the pilot enough time to leave. My experiment is to (this is confusing) reduce the speed of falling when it is shot to give the pilot  enough time to leave it or, hopefully, save the helicopter as well. To me, I think it is all about the length of the wings. I do have evidence (No need for plural here) backing me up. This is a presentation https://prezi.com/x506d6eluwgz/how-does-the-size-of-the-wings-and-the-type-of-paper-affect/. Check this graph 

Here is the link for that graph https://www.rose-hulman.edu/~stienstr/me421/DOE2001.htm. Or read this http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/2007-01/1170273697.Eg.r.html. The last link shows how the wings effect the falling rate, and  that the longer the wings are the More time take it would take for the paper helicopter to fall. (the summary of the method) I will be dropping a paper helicopter from a the same height and editing the length of the wings to see what scientific effects it has on the speed of falling. (Unnecessary) I am testing the time it would take for the helicopter to land from the same height, using the same model. (Unnecessary) that I will finally be able to say that some things that you do are more effective than other things that you do. My Hypothesis is that as you increase the length of the wings, the time it takes in order for the paper helicopter to fall increases.  So my independent variable is the length of the wings. So my independent variable will effect my dependent one which is the speed of falling.

It hurts me to hear that a soldier died because he could not escape from a crashing helicopter. So I will try and help to prevent this from happening. And thank you for your time. (Excellent comment which would persuade someone to fund your researchs)

    Hey Obai,

    Let me first tell you how impressed I am at the quality of this piece! I haven’t been in any of your classes this week so the level of independence demonstrated by your efforts is actually extraordinary. There is one criterion of the hypothesis badge that you need to meet before I can award it to you. The hypothesis you provide contains two independent variables and the nature of experiment requires there to be only one. Let’s talk about which is most appropriate before Equalities today and we can check some sentence structures and typos together.

    Well done and see you at lunch time,

    Ms C

    If it’s now in bold please check it and get back to me.

    This piece actually meets the Hypothesis badge criteria now cease you have stated a clear testable relations ship between variables. Congratulations and I’ll pop over to Achievements to record that.

    Thanks for making those changes. The proposal still needs some work though. Let’s talk about this graph. I don’t think it fits. Keep those parts you’ve crossed out- just remove the extraneous “so”s.
