The rubber band would turn and cause the propeller to move. When you launch it, it will cause the propeller to turn, causing the airplane to fly.
A stretched rubber band has potential energy like a spring. It has the potential to snap back. I used to build model airplanes with rubber band motors. I also had a rubber band gun that shot rubber bands. The potential energy stored in the rubber bank is what made these devices work.
It depends on the rubber band if is a small rubber band then it will go about 20'and if it is an bigger rubber band then it will go about 35' but it depends on the rubber band and the way you shoot the rubber band
This depends on the size of the rubber band, the materials and impurities in the rubber band, and the speed at which you stretch it, as well as the conditions that the rubber band has been under.
i don't know a hundred, but you could make a rubber band gun, and a rubber band ball, or a rubber band chain. just look on youtube for instructions.
rubber band
Model ships were popular before WW2; after WW2, model airplanes, especially rubber band powered airplanes, then fuel (engine) powered model planes became popular. Children also enjoyed collecting scrap metal, knitting and, "spying",
It's a flying model aircraft whose propeller is turned by an unwinding strip of rubber. Some of these planes are pretty big.

Rubber powered airplanes fall into three types.The first is to use a rubber band as a sling attached to the front of the plane. When stretched and released the contracting band moves the plane forward and it soars upwards based on the aerodynamics of the wing.The second rubber band powered plane uses a twisted band attached to the propeller. the realising torsional energy as it unwinds turns the propelled and pulls the plane forward and it soars upwards based on the aerodynamics of the wing.As an alternate, a mixture of rubber powder and oxidant can be used in a rocket engine to thrust the plane forward.

Yes, it is a toy machine.

stash a small engine into it
You can treat the rubber band as a spring. Ve=1/2*k*x2Where Ve is the elastic potential energy stored in the rubber band, k is the spring constant for the rubber band (can be calculated experimentally), and x is the distance the rubber band is stretched.

For your first one, go to a good model store and select a cheap and simple kit, preferably rubber band powered. I say cheap, as it IS going to be wrecked, the first few always are until you learn to build carefully.
