Trivia Game
You will be working with your
table groups to earn points.
At the end of 2 weeks, the
table group with the most
points will win a treat.
Table 1: What did you
observe during the balloon
experiment when the bottle
was held in ice water? Why
did this happen?
Table 2: What did you
observe during the balloon
experiment when the bottle
was held in hot water? Why
did this happen?
Table 3: What is one way an
object has lift?
Table 4: Why are hot-air
balloons shaped like they
are? Why are they not
shaped flat, spherical, or
rectangular?
Table 1: Does the air in a
balloon have higher or lower
pressure than the air around
it?
Table 2: What is a
hypothesis?
Table 3: What word is used
to describe the study of air
in motion?
Table 4: Where is the low air
pressure located in relation
to an airplane wing? Above,
below, in front, or behind?
Experiment:
Lift and Aerodynamics
The faster the air moves over an
object, the lower the pressure.
This is called, Bernoulli’s Principle.
Bernoulli’s Principle explains how
airplane wings work.
Experiment:
Lift and Aerodynamics
Don’t forget to put your name on your plane!
Experiment:
Lift and Aerodynamics
What gave our planes push?
What gave our planes lift?
What does aerodynamics
describe?
Experiment:
Lift and Aerodynamics
Where does this plane get its
push?
How about this one?
Which car goes faster? Why?
