Assuming the rocket reaches terminal velocity almost instantly when the parachute is deployed, how long should it take your rocket to careen to the ground?

October Sky Project Lab 4: The Recovery System ______________________________________________________________
Theory: In this lab you will explore these elements of safe recovery. 1. Terminal velocity for safe landing 2. Relationship between drag, terminal velocity, and parachute diameter.
Construction: In this lab you will perform the next 3 steps to completing your rocket: 1. Reinforce fins and launch lug 2. Complete recovery system 3. Prime rockets __________________________________________________________________
Supplies 1. Sheets of light plastic (garbage bags work). 2. Twine 3. Scissors 4. White spray primer 5. Wood glue

I. Calculating the optimal radius of your parachute
A. As we learned this semester, a falling object reaches terminal velocity when the drag force exactly balances its weight. Therefore the whole purpose of a parachute is to create a strong enough drag force such that the terminal velocity is low enough to safely land the object. Recall that the drag force is D = ½ ρv2CdA. When you have reached terminal velocity v becomes vd. Use newton’s second law to derive a formula for vd in terms of ρ, Cd, A, g, and m. (Hint: We did this in lecture)
B. Given that your parachute is a circle, use this fact to express your equation for vd in terms of r, the radius of the parachute.
C. To be sure that your rocket lands safely, it should not hit the ground any faster than vd = 2.5 m/s. Use this terminal velocity to solve for the minimum radius that your parachute will need to be in order to land your rocket safely. Use the values for Cd, air density, and mass that you used in the previous lab report or look them up online.
II. Rocket Construction

A. Fin and launch lug reinforcement.

  1. By far the most vulnerable parts of your rocket are the fin connections and the launch lugs. Using the glue nozzle, put a drop of glue on the top edge of both sides of each fin and then use your finger to swipe a nice smooth layer on the seam in order to reinforce it.
    B. Recovery system construction.
  2. Using your calculations for part 1 cut out a parachute that will safely land your rockets.
  3. Cut 6 18” strings that are attached (evenly spaced) around the parachute and then tie them altogether to the nose cone.
    C. Priming
  4. The rocket’s paint coat is more brilliant and sticks better when there is a layer of white primer beneath it.
  5. There are three ways to totally mess up your paint job when it comes to spray paint. a) Holding the nozzle down for too long. (If you do this, paint accumulates in one place and you get drips down the side of the rocket.) b) Holding the nozzle too close to the rocket. (Same thing, drips). c) Keeping the spray stream in the same place for too long. (You guessed it, more drips).
  6. You can avoid this by: a) Spraying in short 1s bursts. b) Always keeping the nozzle a minimum of 1 foot away from the rocket. c) Always move the nozzle as you paint.
  7. Continue until there is one complete opaque white coat over the rocket and nose cone.

connections between Michelangelo and Caravaggio

In the final paper, you will apply the skills you have been developing throughout the course in analyzing scholarly arguments and working closely with images, focusing on a recent article that explores possible connections between Michelangelo and Caravaggio:

Fenichel, Emily. “Playing Footsy: Michelangelo, Caravaggio, and the Madonna of Loreto.” Source: Notes in the History of Art 36, no. 3-4 (Spring/Summer 2017)

Make sure you clearly identify the author’s claims and the evidence adduced to support them, and then evaluate the persuasiveness of Fenichel’s argument based on your own visual observation and your knowledge from course readings, lectures, and sections.

You should not use any additional sources other than the assigned article and the readings for this course.

The paper should be 5 pages long, double-spaced, with 1-inch margins and Times New Roman font, size 12, and it should make use of footnotes or endnotes only. Your footnotes/endnotes should make use of the Chicago Manual of Style format (Links to an external site.) (see section slides from week 9 for further instructions) and you will need to include a bibliography or list of works cited at the end of your paper.

Remember that every time you quote, paraphrase or summarize others’ work, facts, ideas, etc. you must cite your source to avoid plagiarism.

Please include illustrations of the works cited at the end of the paper with captions indicating artist, title, date, medium, and present location, and refer to the them as (Figure 1), (Figure 2), etc. throughout the paper.

Requirements: 5 Pages
