Kia ora Bloggers,
Today for science we are watching a water rocket and how high will it fly.
What I think that the rocket will fly high into the sky and then fly around then drop down. here is the link to watch the video of our science experiment click on this link right here to watch the video
I think the rocket will go 3/4 meters because it depends on how many pumps we do to make it blast off See you bloggers.
3 2 1 ...Take off
Have you ever used a water rocket? To use an Aquapod what you have to do was attach the water bottle to the vale and full the bottle with water about one third then very carefully put the water bottle on top of the rocket without spilling the water. You are probably thinking whats a aquapod and how you use a water rocket well I am going to tell you how you use a launchpad.We also had to flip the launch pad upside down to put the water bottle on it.
Firstly you have to use a aquapod you have to attach the bright orange aquapod to the string and then pin it to the ground but first before you pin it to the ground then with your foot you have to pump so that the water bottle is ready to take off before it takes off what you have to do is watch the bubbles in the water bottle and then Our teacher told us to stand right against one of the classrooms so that it does not hit anyone.
Secondly it was time for it to fly in the air so my teacher pulled the string and it didn't go in the air so we had to try it again so we had to go back in a circle and start again so that meant we had to pump it again and this time it worked it went high but not high enough so we had another go.
thirdly It went high then the other time I was so excited to see it go in the air it went in the air for 2 seconds and then it hit with a big thud to the ground.
Lastly we went in side and we wrote a blog post about the experiment and it was so mesmerizing.
