Easy Elementary Science Projects: Holding a Glass With a Balloon!
In this easy elementary science project we are going to see that air presses in all directions. We are going to be able to hold a glass by a balloon inside the glass. This can even be a very good party trick. This is one of our easy elementary science projects that shows you how much fun science can be. Do get permission before you do this experiment just for in case something goes wrong and the glass breaks.
What you need for this experiment:How to do this project:- Hold the glass in one hand and with your other hand let the balloon dangle inside the glass.
- Blow into the balloon. If you find this difficult it may be a good idea to get some help.
- As the balloon inflates, the part of the balloon that is inside the balloon will swell out and touch the sides of the glass.
- Continue blowing until the pressure of the air inside the balloon is so high against the sides of the glass that you can remove your hand holding the balloon and lift the glass by holding the end of the balloon.
This little easy elementary science project is not enough for a complete science fair project, but as we add other experiments that use air pressure you will gradually build up a complete science fair project.
If your science fair project is due soon, I recommend that you get yourself a good science fair e-book to help. 24 Hour Science Projects is a very good choice. In this e-book you get complete science fair projects that can be completed in 24 hours or less, so you'll be able to complete your projects in time.
