STEM Investigation – Falling Cones & Aerodynamics
Title: 💡 STEM Investigation – Falling Cones Summary: Students explore how mass and cone shape affect falling speed by dropping paper circles and cones from a consistent height. They test flat circles, standard cones (~100°), double cones, and cones with wide (~20°) and narrow (~260°) angles. Observations show that flat circles fall slowest due to high air resistance, standard cones fall faster, double cones fall fastest due to increased mass, and cone angle affects drag—narrow cones fall quick
