Embark on an exciting journey into the world of STEM with a thrilling DIY project – building a balloon-powered car! This hands-on activity is not just a fun way to spend an afternoon but also a fantastic opportunity to explore basic principles of physics and engineering. To get started, gather materials like a balloon, a lightweight chassis (think cardboard or foam board), straws for axles, and wheels made from bottle caps. Assemble the car by attaching the wheels to the axles and securing the axles to the chassis. Next, carefully affix the balloon to the back of the car. The magic happens when you inflate the balloon and then release it – watch as your balloon car zooms across the room! This simple experiment demonstrates Newton's third law of motion, showcasing how air escaping from the balloon propels the car forward. This STEM activity not only sparks creativity but also teaches valuable lessons in physics and engineering. Plus, it's an engaging way to inspire a love for science in young minds. So, gather your materials, inflate those balloons, and let the learning (and fun!) begin!

Short clip from Andy's entry to the @movaglobes #StayHomeScienceFair This covers one of his favorite subjects, #electromagnetism The principle is very simple and you can easily replicate this at home. Keep in mind that the batteries WILL OVERHEAT if left connected to the circuit so always make sure to remove the battery at the end and only use it for short periods of time.

A #penny for your... hammer. US #pennies minted after 1982 have a #zinc core clad with a very thin coat of #copper Before that, they were solid copper. The zinc becomes brittle when cooled in #liquid #nitrogen and can be broken by tapping it with a hammer. At room #temperature they remain intact as do the solid copper ones at either temperature. The temperature of #liquidnitrogen which is boiling at normal atmospheric pressure is: 77 #kelvin -196 #celsius -320 #fahrenheit . #supersciencesaturday #ridgewoodhighschool @andystechgarage #andystechgarage #atg #stem #stemandy #stemeva #stematg #andystem #evastem #atgstem #learning #learningbydoing #learningbyplaying #chemistry #phisics #stemfun #stemfun4kidz #coin (at Ridgewood High School (New Jersey))
