How does drag effect the speed of a swimmer?
Posted: Mon Oct 10, 2016 4:50 pm
I chose the science project How does drag effect the speed of a swimmer from Science Buddies and I'm trying to figure out my variables. Can you confirm the following: the controlled variable would be the time of day, the swimmer, the pool length, pool temp and stroke.
Dependent variable would be the time the swimmer gets across the 25m pool.
Independent variable would bet shirt and shorts v jammers and swim cap.
Could we change the experiment to see if adding fins and paddleswould improve the speed in the Tshirt and shorts or how could we further the experiment?
Thanks!
