Abstract:
Hovercrafts were constructed using a Compact Disk and Baloons to calculate linear and average displacement, speed and acceleration. The innovative concepts was used to promote learning of Astrophysics to 15 aspiring physics enthusiast to explain the Newton’s laws of Physics as it applies to the working principle of an hovercraft and training of astronauts
