Students embarking on the Co2 Dragster Unit embark on an exciting journey, diving into fresh concepts and challenges tailored specifically for grade 9/10 learners. The unit's primary objective is to enable students to apply fundamental physics principles in real-world contexts, fostering a deeper understanding of these concepts. In addition to mastering physics, students will acquire new skills and techniques in 3D Modeling and leverage cutting-edge 3D printing technology. This multifaceted approach equips them with versatile tools for problem-solving. The unit is structured into four pivotal areas: theoretical physics underlying dragsters, vehicle design using sophisticated 3D modeling software, the intricacies of printing and assembly, and the high-stakes racing component. Throughout this process, students will collaborate in pairs, fostering teamwork and mutual support. A robust foundation in mathematics and physics will underpin the Co2 Dragster Unit. Key concepts include measurement techniques, multiplication and division operations, formula application, graphing methods, and estimation strategies. By integrating academic principles into a real-world scenario, students develop a profound appreciation for the practical relevance of their studies.
