Energy Experiment - Bottle Rocket 1

Last Thursday Room 32 investigated how to make a bottle rocket fly by using air pressure from a bike pump.  We needed a 1L bottle, a stand, a bung, a bike pump and clear open space.

We discovered that when we tipped some of the water out it blasted higher into the sky.  However, without enough water in it, it struggled to gain as much height.

It was one of the best experiments we have ever done!!!
