Red Hot Racers

 For reading we had to read the book " Red Hot Racers ". Then for the task we had to answer questions and summarise the three main points of the story. Then we had to create our own race car on Google drawing with shapes. This is my work:

Uni-structural: What is the purpose of this story? The purpose of this story is learning about how to make a super light car powered by carbon dioxide. The author uses descriptive words to describe the events in action. The characters are Louise Alex 

Mr Bowmen Jerry


Multi-structural: the car needs to be in a special shape to stop in drag. Some cars, especially racing cars have an aerofoil (spoiler) on the back to help reduce the lift. a well built mini dragster can rocket along speeds at of 100 kilometres per hour  


Relational: Anything that moves through air is affected by aerodynamics, from a rocket blasting off, to a kite flying Since they are surrounded by air, even cars are affected by aerodynamics. What Are the Four Forces of Flight These forces make an object move up and down, and faster or slower
