Questions for Discussion: Air Power: Experimenting with Balloons

  • Why does the balloon move?
  • If the straw were sticking straight out, how would the balloon move?
  • What if the straw were bent more?
  • Can you get more than one straw to come out of a single balloon? If so, can you point different straws in different directions? Make a prediction as to how the balloon will behave when air is expelled from it.
