Our Year 12 International Baccalaureate Diploma students completed their research-based assignments in Term 1 by conducting practical investigations on a topic of their choosing.
In Physics Olivia Nakhle chose to investigate the effect of a payload on the acceleration of rockets. This involved Olivia 3D-printing rockets, modifying a payload chamber and filming her launches. She analysed her launches with tracking software to determine the acceleration of her rockets.
