Pressure Popper – The Bottle Rocket!
Print Profile(1)
Description
The Pressure Popper is a homemade rocket powered by air pressure – simple, powerful, and super fun!
All you need is a PET bottle and a bicycle pump.
As the bottle is filled with air via the pump, the pressure builds until the valve cap pops out, and the bottle is launched with a powerful puff! It can reach up to 10 meters straight up and 20 meters sideways, depending on how hard you pump.
Here's how you do it:
- Press the valve cap firmly into the bottle opening.
- Attach the pump nozzle and start pumping.
- Step back – after a few seconds, it will pop and the bottle will fly!
Perfect for demonstrating how air pressure works – and for impressing your friends!
Safety first:
– Use safety glasses.
– Never point the bottle at anyone.
