Alka-Seltzer RocketsHow to Build Your Own Rocket
Before you start:Building this rocket will help you understand how real rockets propel themselves into space:
ASK AN ADULT TO HELP YOU!
What you will learn:You can use baking soda and vinegar to propel an object across the floor. The object, in this case your rocket will slide across the floor by the chemical reaction created from the combination of baking soda and vinegar.
A scientist from the early 1700’s named Isaac Newton, came up with an idea about how things move through space. He said a force pushing on an object will create a second force, with same strength as the first, going in the opposite direction. This idea is now call Newton’s Third Law of Motion What you need:Yard stick, Measuring tape (several feet long), Stopwatch
Directions: Tape several large garbage bags to the floor, creating a runway, see diagram. Tape a yardstick to the floor on the narrow side. This can be used as the start line for your launch track. 1. Put a small amount of baking soda
into the canister. 2. Add enough vinegar to just cover
the baking soda and quickly replace the lid. You can also use Alka-Seltzer tablets and water.
3. Set the rocket on the start line, one end of the plastic bag, with the cap facing you. BE CAREFUL, IMPROPER USE OF YOUR ROCKET CAN CAUSE EYE INJURIES.
4. Time the rocket to see how long it takes from launch to when it comes to a complete stop.
5. Place a marker along- side the runway where the rocket ends and measure the distance to the final resting point of the rocket.
6. Does the amount of baking soda and vinegar used change the distance that the rocket goes? Try different amounts (WITH ADULT PERMISSION) and record you R’Club Mission Statement:
