  1. We were testing that if you spin two bottles around and around until all of the water would go down in the other bottle. Because the air (gases) hold the water up.

  2. This picture shows how you get water into another bottle. First you flip the bottle upside down. Next you spin the bottle like a tornado. Then you watch it fall into the other bottle and then you can do it again and again.

  3. We are doing an experiment on how to make the liquid go into the bottom bottle with touching the bottle as little as possible so you had to spin the bottle like you’re swirling a cup of water and the water and the water and the air mix and the air gets transferred to the top bottle with nowhere for the water to go but down and if you wanted to do it again you would just flip the bottle over.

  4. Xavier is getting the liquid in one bottle to the other bottle with air in it. By spinning it which makes a tornado. The reason you have to make a tornado is that the air in the other bottle would hold the liquid up. So we had to find how the air could move through also allowing it to have the liquid go through to.

    We would have two bottles and a tornado tube. If you held it up side down none would fall. If you hit it works but it’s not fun. You got to act like you’re stirring and it will make a whirl pool and will go down.

  6. In this picture my group is making liquid go from one bottle to the other. To do that you tip it upside down and when you do the water will not fall down because the air (gas) stops it. Then you have to spin the bottle and it should make a tornado figure in the bottle, which will cause it to go down because air can get in it.

  7. We went to STARBASE Tuesday and while we were there one of the leaders had us give a prediction of what was going to happen when he flipped two bottles hooked together by a weird double headed cap (one of the bottles had water in it the other did not). So we predicted that the water would go straight through. It turned out that it did not go straight through because the water left no room for the oxygen to go to the top. He showed us that to get the water to go down you had to spin it like a tornado or hurricane.
