This is an my topic for my essay. I'd like it if people can post up some theories to this topic. I am investigating why is it that commercial planes have a round nose whereas most fighter planes have sharp noses (Like the beaks of birds) and why F1 cars cars have a conical nose cone instead of a...
I'm looking to do something in the field of aerodynamics and/ or fluid dynamics...I want to go into aeronautical engineering when I do my undergrad, I am posting for a essay tittle which proposes certain interesting problems in those two fields. The essay should be 4000 words long and the more...
Aerospace or Aeronautical?
I'm a 17 year old IB student who takes the IB Diploma next year. My dream is to end up working on a high-flying Formula One (F1) team as their aerodynamisict. I also would like to work on plane models, space shuttles and cars...like designing them...I have a profound...
I'm planning to do an extended Essay for the IB Diploma in Physics. I want to do something on Fluid Dynamics. I was thinking of investigating terminal velocity and effects on drag and upthrust to terminal velocity. That investigation will of course involve Stoke's Law. BUt I think that might be...
The IB Diploma is a substitute for the A level system. In the first choice (fluid dynamics) I would like to research on how things fall in water, does their mass have any other effect than making it drop faster? How much of a factor is drag? And try to find an equation to things dropping in...
I am in my first year of the IB Diploma and I have chosen Higher Physics and want to do my extended essay in Physics. Is fluid dynamics (or fluid mechanics i.e. how things fall in water and why) better or is analyzing the effect of colors on the rate of evaporation better? This essay has to be...
