Hot Air Balloon
When we added the garbage bag, we taped each of the 5 straws to the bag but it was really difficult to do so. The tape was not sticky enough. Every tape we stick onto the bag would just fall off. In the end, we never got to test the air balloon out but most likely wouldn't have worked.
Materials
- egg lander before this experiment
- extra tape
- 10 candles
- garbage bag
The idea of the structure was thought of by our group which was to make it large enough to fit the bag we were given. We had many different ideas how to put the candle on the straw and we decided to cut the straws open like a hole so we can poke the candle through. We used 5 candles one on each straw. We did not use more than 5 because the mass of the candles would be too heavy. We had planned to make the structure into a square and we also wanted to support the structure with more straws but we realized it would just add on more weight.
