Project Title: Balloon Blasters!!!!!!

Project Abstract: My project is about Balloon Blasters.Large, medium, and small openings are cut on cardboard pieces. A balloon is inflated an one of the cardboard pieces are placed on the balloon's neck. Partner 1 holds the balloon's neck closed. A straw has a 9 meter string passed through it. This straw is taped onto the balloon's top. Partner 2 stands on the opposite side of the string. Partner 1 releases the balloon and it travels along the string. The distance travelled is measured.The same procediere is followed, using 2 new balloons and 2 remaining index cards. A chart is made, comparing the distance travelled, and the opening sizes on the index cards. From doing this experiment, you learn that the balloon with the smallest opening travels the farthest because there's greater force and propulsion.
