  1. What are Aerodynamics and Air Resistance? By: Joshua Vayle

  2. What Is Aerodynamics? • Aerodynamics are how you minimize air resistance • The more aerodynamic something is the less air resistance it will endure • You make something more aerodynamic by changing its 3-Dimentional shape • Some 3-Dimentional shapes are more aerodynamic than others • For example, a sphere is more aerodynamic than a cube

  3. What is Air Resistance? • Air resistance is friction created by the air pushing against things in the air • The faster something is going in the air and less aerodynamic something is the more air resistance it endures • For example air resistance is pushing against a football when you throw it

  4. Questions • I am going to ask 3 questions • I will call on one person to answer each question • Now let’s get started!!!

  5. 1. What do aerodynamics minimize? • A: Air resistance • B: Aerodynamics • C: Heat

  6. The Answer • The correct answer was A: air resistance

  7. 2. Air resistance is formed when what pushes against things in the air? • A: aerodynamics • B: air • C: friction

  8. The Answer • The correct answer is B :Air

  9. Which is True? • A: Aerodynamics and air resistance are the same thing • B: Aerodynamics are how you increase air resistance • C: Aerodynamics are how you minimize air resistance

  10. The Answer • The correct answer is C: Aerodynamics are how you minimize air resistance

  11. The End
