Qualitative
Testing Activity Overview In this activity, you will be using FoilSim to prepare computer-generated models of various wing designs. After you have generated certain wing designs, you will then create real models from balsa wood (or some other appropriate alternative). You will qualitatively test the effectiveness of these models and the predictions by attaching them to a balance on a bicycle and observing the effective lift. You will then report methods and results of your experiment. Materials FoilSim. Procedure
