Day Three

This morning, we are looking at equations for our center of pressure from this we learned you need to have the center of pressure behind the center of gravity, this will prevent disturbing forces such as wind from messing up the launch of the rocket and keep the lift off straight. So we are still trying to figure out the weight we need the rocket to be, knowing this will help us figure out which materials to use and we need to know the size, shape and area of the fins. The equations we are looking up will help us to make the most successful rocket. We're also looking up different designs and how each one is different and has its own advantages and disadvantages.
