On Sunday, April 11 Ares Worsley was announced as the winner of the Quinte Regional Science and Technology Fair. Ares started two months ago by competing in the Birds Creek Public School’s annual science fair. It was his first time competing and he was looking at studying how things fly. With some help from his teacher, Chris Spencer, Ares decided on doing a project about how things fall.
He used three different sized balloons and dropped them from the top of a door frame. He repeated this three times with each balloon size and measured how fast they fell by counting the individual frames of the videos he recorded of each fall.
