Balloon Rocket

 

Balloon Rocket

You will need:

• string

• balloon

• tape

• paper straw

Let's make a balloon rocket.

Now we've seen how it works can you level up? Try testing different angles, different size balloons, different amounts of air in the balloon.

How it works...

Our Rocket Blast Balloon demonstrates Newton’s Third Law of Motion: for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

When we release the balloon, the pressurized air in the balloon pushes against the air around the balloon sending it in the opposite direction down the string.

We were learning about...the third Newton's law of motion.

Colour Changing Milk Experiment

 

Colour Changing Milk Experiment

What happened... Milk is mostly water, but it also contains vitamins, minerals, proteins, and tiny droplets of fat suspended in solution. Fats and proteins are sensitive to changes in the surrounding solution (the milk).

The molecules of fat bend, roll, twist, and contort in all directions as the soap molecules race around to join up with the fat molecules. During all of this fat molecule gymnastics, the food coloring molecules are bumped and shoved everywhere, providing an easy way to observe all the invisible activity. As the soap becomes evenly mixed with the milk, the action slows down and eventually stops. This is why milk with a higher fat content produces a better explosion of color—there’s just more fat to combine with all of those soap molecules.
