Plan a carrier delivery, diagnose a miss and compare an actual match attempt with a calculated revision.

Keep the first answer

Use the Do Now before the guided range prelab. Use the independent launch afterward. Both activities are optional; skipping does not mark work reviewed.

Record before revealing or testing. Hints and corrections stay separate from first predictions. Paper acknowledgments contain no numerical answer or correctness score. Reviewing the practice requires an observed full flight and a recorded reflection.

The scene, graph and table use one physical clock. Playback speed affects viewing only. Response entry, hints, help, the number pad and browser interruptions pause motion. Resume deliberately.

Packet pages 1–3 are for predictions and work. The supplied evidence card on page 4 is for after predictions; it supports offline comparison and is not a measurement of a student’s flight.
