We had 4 attempts finding the velocity with paper boats. We recorded the time and the distance we found the average. We also used online tools to calculate the velocity. Then we found the average velocity of Sami’s boat was 27.72 cm/sec.

I really enjoyed reading youre velocity of the Omaru Creek. I also made one and found out how to do the mean. The Oamaru Creeks velocity was very very fast. One question ''Was this easy for you?
