Balloon Car Neon Color

Balloon Car Neon Color: The balloon inside the racer car inflates by blowing into the mouthpiece, then let go and sit back and watch as the car is propelled along by the air being released from the inflated balloon. A fun great way to introduce cause and effect, and great for tracking skills, oral exercise, and open scientific discussions. This activity gives learning of how the deflation of balloon gives a forward force for moving the car, it also helps to understand how the wheels can be attached to the axel for the movement of the car.

Turn a pile of trash into a toy car—and watch it go! In this activity, you will learn some physics concepts and use recycled materials to build a toy car that is propelled by a balloon. You can even find a friend, build two cars and race them against each other. Another way to think about the balloon’s movement is to use Newton’s third law of motion: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

When you blow up the balloon, set your racer down, and let it go, escaping air from the balloon rushes out of the straw. This is your car’s propulsion system. As the air flows from the balloon, the energy changes to kinetic energy or the energy of motion. The moving Balloon-Powered Car is using kinetic energy.

Balloon Car Neon Color is rightly priced as a gift.
