Tape can provide additional support to the balloon, distributing the stress caused by the pressure inside the balloon more evenly. This reduces the chances of the balloon popping, as the tape reinforces the material of the balloon, making it less likely to burst under the pressure.

Why doesn't a balloon pop with a needle through it?

When you insert a needle into a balloon, it creates a small hole. The air inside the balloon escapes gradually through this hole, preventing the balloon from popping. The pressure inside the balloon decreases as the air escapes, relieving the stress and preventing a sudden burst.


Why don't balloons pop when pricked through tape?

The tape acts as reinforcement and prevents the hole from the pin to become a rip that bursts the balloon. Without the tape stuck onto the balloon the needle prick would allow the rubber tension to rip itself apart because of the air pressure stretching the rubber which would be in tension. The tape stops the balloon being able to split and so it doesn't burst. It used to be a kids trick to put 2 pieces of tape on opposite sides of a balloon and then push a long knitting needle right through the balloon without bursting it.


Why doesnt a balloon pop when you put a skewer through it?

When you insert a skewer into a balloon, the material of the balloon stretches around the skewer, creating a seal that prevents the balloon from popping. The surface tension of the balloon also helps to keep it intact by distributing the force exerted by the skewer.


What is a palindrome for the noise of a bursting balloon?

A palindrome for the noise of a bursting balloon could be "pop."


How does a balloon not pop when you put a skew stick through it?

When you put a skewer through a balloon, the rubber in the balloon stretches and forms a temporary seal around the skewer. The rubber is flexible enough to conform to the shape of the skewer without tearing, preventing the balloon from popping.

How can you put a needle in a balloon without popping it?

at the part where you blow it up Take a piece of tape and place it over the outside of the balloon. Poke the needle through the tape and through the surface of the balloon. The balloon will not pop because the surface of the balloon cannot expand, thus popping the balloon.

A rubber balloon with a piece of scotch tape does not burst when it is pricked by a needle at the piece of the scotch tape?

The reason it sometimes won't, or won't immediately, is the tape prevents the balloon from ripping. The pop is caused by a very quick rip of the latex. The tape prevents the balloon from popping , or allows it to occur more slowly.
