1. Physics Of Paper Airplanes
In terms of physic, the airplane is staying afloat because it is trading potential energy for kinetic energy, which equals velocity. As the gliders lose altitude, they convert potential energy into kinetic energy, which keeps the plane in motion. This is an example of the conservation of energy because most of the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and no energy is lost. ...
