Rocket Experiment


 
L.I: How technology expands human development, L.I: How society and environments impact on and are influenced by technology past, present and future. This week for Inquiry, Mr Ogilvie's group did a Rocket experiment. For this we pinned approximately 7 metres of a fishing line from one end of the room to the other. Before pinning you put a straw through the line.  For the rocket you blow a balloon, then use some tape to stick it on the straw. Instead of tying the end we used a clip. We did this experiment three times for each balloon (three balloons). It was fun predicting and watching the balloon run through the string like a flying fox. While doing this experiment we had to record the data. Using that data we made a bar graph show us how many metres each balloon went. The graph is showing you that balloon one went through the furthest. I think the graph was easy because I am experienced and currently learning about new graphs. I had fun doing the Rocket experiment.
