Balloon rockets work by utilizing the principle of action and reaction. When air is released from the balloon, it creates a force that propels the balloon in the opposite direction. The escaping air creates thrust, pushing the balloon in the direction opposite to the airflow.

How can you use a balloon with a negative charge to find out whether the charge on another balloon is positive or negative?

If the balloon with a negative charge is brought near the other balloon and they repel each other, it means the other balloon has a negative charge. If they attract each other, it means the other balloon has a positive charge. This happens due to the interaction of opposite charges (positive and negative) or similar charges (negative and negative).


How can you inflate a H2O balloon?

To inflate a water balloon, stretch the balloon opening over a faucet and turn on the water slowly until the balloon reaches the desired size. Alternatively, you can use a water balloon pump to inflate the balloon. Just make sure not to overinflate it to avoid bursting.


How does temperature affect the size of a balloon?

When the temperature is colder the particles in the balloon travel slower, making the balloon not able to increase in size it decreases.When the temperature is hot it allows the balloon to expand because the particles in the balloon are moving rapidly. in conclusion the the cold makes the balloon decrease in size and the heat allows it to expand.


What happens when you put oxygen into a balloon?

When you put oxygen into a balloon, the gas fills up the balloon and increases the pressure inside. This causes the balloon to expand and inflate. If too much oxygen is put into the balloon, it could burst due to the increased pressure.


What is the use of oxygen in the rockets?

Oxygen is used in rockets as an oxidizer to facilitate the combustion of fuel. It helps to support the chemical reaction that generates thrust by combining with the fuel to release energy. This process allows rockets to generate the necessary propulsion for launch and space travel.

Can you fly to the moon with a balloon. Or a plane?

I doubt it. In order for a balloon to work you have to have atmosphere. Once you leave the atmosphere of the earth, you can drift in any direction. The space craft that we use has thrusters and rockets that will steer you in the direction you want to go. Balloons are at the mercy of the wind.


What are balloon rockets made out of?

1 balloon (round ones will work, but the longer "airship" balloons work best)1 long piece of kite string (about 10-15 feet long)1 plastic strawtapeTie one end of the string to a chair, door knob, or other support.Put the other end of the string through the straw.Pull the string tight and tie it to another support in the room.Blow up the balloon (but don't tie it.) Pinch the end of the balloon and tape the balloon to the straw as shown above. You're ready for launch.Let go and watch the rocket fly!.So how does it work? It's all about the air...and thrust. As the air rushes out of the balloon, it creates a forward motion called THRUST. Thrust is a pushing force created by energy. In the balloon experiment, our thrust comes from the energy of the balloon forcing the air out. Different sizes and shapes of balloon will create more or less thrust. In a real rocket, thrust is created by the force of burning rocket fuel as it blasts from the rockets engine - as the engines blast down, the rocket goes up!


Will rockets work in space?

Yes. The space shuttle uses rockets in space to manuever.

What causes rocket propulsion?

For every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction. It you blow up a balloon and don't tie the end, the air inside the balloon is pushing against all of the balloon equally. When the untied end is released, air pushing out the back causes an equal affect of pushing on the front and the balloon moves forward. Rockets work in the same manner. Instead of air, they use combustible fuel for their force.


Do model rockets and real rockets work the same?

Yes, both work by action/reaction. Model rockets are just much smaller, thus have much less fuel, so can't go near as high or as far.


Do rockets work better in space or in air?

Rockets work better in space than in air. In space, rockets don't have to overcome the resistance caused by air, allowing them to achieve higher speeds and more efficient propulsion. In contrast, in the Earth's atmosphere, rockets have to fight against air resistance which hinders their performance.
