wingspan
Looking at your data, did the wingspan determine the flight time of your paper helicopter?
Yes, the longer the wingspan was, the the slower the paper helicopter dropped.
No, the paper helicopter dropped at the same rate each time.
Yes, the longer the wingspan was, the the faster the paper helicopter dropped.
Yes, the shorter the wingspan was the slower the paper helicopter dropped.
