Science Max: Newton's Third Law

What was the main reason the initial balloon-powered car experiment failed?

• The balloon was too small to generate enough force.

• The cart was too heavy to move.

• The balloon was not inflated enough.

• The air compressor was not used properly.

Why did the team decide to use a compressed gas cylinder instead of a balloon?

• The cylinder can provide more force than a balloon.

• The cylinder is more environmentally friendly.

• The cylinder is easier to handle.

• The cylinder is safer to use.

What safety precaution did the team emphasize before starting the gas cylinder experiment?

• Ensuring the brakes are on and feet are down.

• Wearing protective gear.

• Conducting the experiment indoors.

• Using a smaller cart.

How did the team plan to increase the speed of the cart in the final experiment?

• By using a larger cart.

• By using more powerful balloons.

• By reducing the weight of the cart.

• By using three gas cylinders and pipes for an initial push.

What scientific principle was demonstrated through the experiments?

• Newton's Third Law of Motion

• Newton's Second Law of Motion

• The Law of Conservation of Energy

• Newton's First Law of Motion
