Abstract :
This paper is an investigation into the motion
of a flying disc. It starts out by considering the basic
concepts of force and pressure acting on the disc during
flight and uses intuition to derive differential equations
for the motion. It then goes on to consider a variety of
factors that may affect the motion of the disc through the
air. The aim of the paper is to find a meaningful
connection between how uncertain quantities and
variations can qualitatively affect the motion of the disc,
making use of mathematical techniques along the way to
prove proportions and relations.
