party poppers

Post by Serena »

Morning everyone
I have a request for our Yr12 physics students to do a prac involving party poppers. I haven't used them in a prac before and I am curious to hear peoples experiences.
Thanks

What are they measuring? Distance the confetti travels? What is the x variable? Anyhoo it sounds like fun.
