week 1 in Bali

Image
Week one in Bali was so much fun. We stayed at Sankara Resort in Ubud. I swam in the pool every day, the staff there are so nice they would always ask how you were and how was your day. Ubud is so cool so many shops and cafes. My favourite cafe was Clear Cafe, the food there was so yum. We went to the Monkey Forest in Ubud it was really scary, the monkeys looked like they wanted to bite us. Some shops had amazing carvings. My three favourite things in Ubud was the pool, the Balinese people and Sankara Resort.

Make a rollercoaster/immersion

Image
today for immersion we were looking at Force, we needed to make a rollercoaster, for my first design I thought that speed would help it needs to be safer. the second one I did was more successful because the hills were different sizes and the loop was also skinnier than the last one so there was more momentum. here is the link for the site if you want to use it  http://www.learner.org/interactives/parkphysics/coaster/result.php3      

immersion/burning peanut

Peanut Energy Experiment Step one: We filled a science beaker with exactly 100ml's of water and measured the water temperature. It was 21 degrees.  Step two:  Then we lit a big candle in the sink. Step three: Then we used science tongs to hold a peanut over the flame of the candle. Step four: Once the peanut had caught on fire we took it out of the flame. We waited until the flame on the candle went out by itself. We timed how long it took for it to go out. Step five: Once the peanut was not on fire anymore we put it in a cup the water. We left it in the water for one minute. Step six: The last thing we did was we measured the water temperature again. The temperature went up to 24 degrees. The temperature rose 3 degrees from one burnt peanut.  We did another experiment after this with two burnt peanuts in the same water. The temperature of the water rose to 34 degrees.
