Power of Heat ( Part 3 )

Today I’ve been making a project about heat. I learned how to use heat. I got instructions from a video by Nanogirl, her videos look easy but it was actually hard. It was so simple but hard to do. 

What I needed to make this experiment was:

A foil

Pencil

A cup or a candle

Strings 

Scissors

And a ruler

Step 1:

First what you need to do get your foil and pencil then draw around inside then cut it out (It should look like a tornado but upside down). Once you’ve done that, poke a hole in the middle, thread the hole with a string, then tie the string onto the ruler.

Step 2:

After that, use a cup with hot water and hold the foil above the cup. Wait for a moment then once you see the foil moving by itself then you’ve completed the task. 

Another way you could have done it, was light a candle and put the foil above it then it could work that way. 

            

Nanogirl made a video of her doing this activity and it worked like a charm, except the cup didn’t turn out well but what I learned about it is that heat increases more heat like the wind, when I put the foil above the boiling hot water then the heat inside the water rises to heat the tinfoil which makes the tinfoil move.
