STEAM Wingbeats
Topic 3 STEAM
FACTOID
Hummingbirds are found only in the
Americas, from southern Alaska to
Argentina. Their powerful wings allow
them to fly forwards, backwards, upside
down, and quickly change directions. They
hover when feeding, remaining almost
motionless in the air.
Some hummingbirds can beat their
wings more than 80 times per second!
Directions:
Research the number of wingbeats per second for
hummingbirds, other birds, and insects found in the
United States.
(at least 4 birds or insects)
Calculate the number of times each of these animals and
insects beat their wings in 1 minute, and then in 1 hour
Present your findings in a table.
