students will be given a thorough overview of the fundamental principles that govern the behavior of physical objects. Students will also learn about the concepts of energy and momentum, which are key to understanding the performance of their dragsters. students will engage in a variety of hands-on activities and experiments that will help them understand and apply these concepts in a practical setting. They will have the opportunity to observe and analyze the motion of objects, measure forces and energies, and apply their knowledge to the design and construction of their own C02 dragsters.

students will be split into groups where they will be encouraged to think critically and problem-solve as they consider factors such as aerodynamics, weight distribution, and the optimal placement of the C02 cartridge that powers their dragster. They will also have the opportunity to test and refine their designs through a series of mock races and simulations, allowing them to see firsthand how different design choices affect the performance of their dragsters.

students will put their design and construction skills to the test as they build and race their own C02 dragsters. Using the materials and knowledge gained from the previous sections of the program, they will work as a team to assemble their dragsters and prepare them for competition. Once their dragsters are built, the students will have the opportunity to test and race their vehicles on a track, competing against each other to see whose dragster is the fastest!
