Paper Airplanes

Many school children and many adults have made at least one paper airplane. For a traditional plane, a single sheet of paper is symmetrically folded until it resembles a very pointy airplane. For those that take things a little farther, more sheets of paper are sometimes added. The folds and designs become more complex.

How does weight effect flight of a glider?

Weight significantly affects the flight of a glider by influencing its lift-to-drag ratio and overall performance. A heavier glider requires more lift to maintain altitude, which can lead to a steeper descent rate if not enough lift is generated. Increased weight can also reduce the glider's ability to soar effectively, as it may struggle to take advantage of rising air currents. Consequently, managing weight is crucial for optimizing a glider's efficiency and flight duration.
