Science experiment

tea bag rocket

Aim: To use particle theory to explain an unusual observation.

Equipment: A tea bag that comes with a string stapled to it, heat proof mat, matches.

Method: 1. Cut off the end with the staple/string and pour out the tea leaves in a pile
              2. Form the bag into a cylinder that is able to stand on its end.
              3. Place the tea bag tube on the pile of tea leaves.
              4. Light the top of the tea bag with a match, stand well back and watch the flame burn down.



When the heat went down to the bottom of the tea bag it flew up and disintegrated in the air.
