Science Fair Proposal @ 16:43

1. If a piece of paper is thin, then and origami frog will travel farther than if it were made of thick paper. 
2. Dependent: The distance the frog travels (meters)
Independent: Paper thickness (millimeters)
Control: Frog shape, force applied on frog to make it travel a certain distance.
3. In Japan, Origami is a very big part of their culture. Origami is the art of paper folding. Understanding folds and the changes that happen because of them, can help with understanding the cultural art. 
4. 
  1. Collect various sizes, weights and thicknesses of paper.  I will measure the thickness of each sheet by measuring the thickness of a stack of sheets and dividing by the number of sheets in each stack.
  2. Fold 5 paper frogs of each kind of paper so that I can calculate an average number of distances more accurately.
  3. "Launch" each frog and measure the distance traveled.  Also, I will apply the same force of the frog using a method that I am currently developing.
  4. Record the distance each frog travels.
  5. After I collect data, I will research WHY a certain type of paper produces better results than others.  This information will go under the extension section of my lab report.
