Tea bag rockets

Expt 1: tea bag rockets

Aim: To find out if all teabags will fly like a rocket.

Materials:

• Tea bags
• lighter
• scissors
• bowl

Method:

• Empty the tea bag and shape the tea bag upright.
• Then we light the tea bag with a lighter.
• The observe what happens.

Hypothesis: I predict that all tea bags will fly in the air.

Observation:

Kinds of tea bags	Trial 1	Trial 2	comments
Red seal	Failed	Failed	The first and second trail melted down
Bell	Good	Failed	The second trial fell down
Hyleys	Good	Good	All the trials worked!!!
Healtheries	Failed	Failed	None of these Healtheries tea bags flew up

Results: Not all tea bags flew up in the air because the tea bag was not cut open properly. The tea bags flew because the hot air carries the tea bag and the it will fly.

Conclude: I conclude that one tea bag both flew and one only had one that flew in the air and those are Hyleys ( both flew) and Bell ( one flew).
