Vortex canon

Aim: to see how far our vortex canon can shoot.

Equipment:

• plastic bucket
• garbage bag
• sellotape
• cardboard
• plastic cups

Method:

1.Cut a hole at the bottom of the plastic bucket.
2.Put the garbage bag at the top of the the bucket.
3.Stick the cardboard to the bottom of the box.
4.Fit the cardboard in the bucket.

Results:
The vortex cannon we made was strong and it knocked the cups 3 meters away


Discussion:
A vortex cannon can shoot cups in 3 meters.

We think that our team could improve on making the garbage bag around the bucket even more tighter, this might help us knock out the cups from a further distance.
