... towards the Earth generates atmospheric pressure. Atmospheric pressure depends on the amount of air above the location where the measurement is taken, and so while atmospheric pressure is 1kg per square ...
In this demonstration, students discover that variances in air pressure can be exploited to create suction. Introduction When the balloon is small, it is curved and takes up a lot of room in the ...
In this demo, students must brainstorm an explanation for the mysterious behaviour of a balloon that stays inflated without being tied. Introduction The answer lies in the force that is exerted by ...
In this game, students use their bodies to illustrate how temperature, density, and volume affect air pressure. Introduction Temperature affects how particles move. As air warms up, the particles ...
... with the walls creates a high-pressure environment inside the balloon relative to the atmospheric pressure around it. This is why when a balloon is released, the high-pressure air flows out of the balloon ...
In this activity, students use their knowledge about air pressure to build an instrument that measures atmospheric pressure, also known as barometric pressure. Introduction Air pressure is affected ...
Not just a lot of hot air! Most children have played with balloons, but few have thought about the chemical and physical concepts involved in balloon production and use. In the activities that follow, ...
