STEM Investigation – Falling Cones & Aerodynamics
Title: 💡 STEM Investigation – Falling Cones Summary: Students explore how mass and cone shape affect falling speed by dropping paper circles and cones from a consistent height. They test flat circles, standard cones (~100°), double cones, and cones with wide (~20°) and narrow (~260°) angles. Observations show that flat circles fall slowest due to high air resistance, standard cones fall faster, double cones fall fastest due to increased mass, and cone angle affects drag—narrow cones fall quick

The Straw Trick: How Can Air Lift Water?
Can air hold up a column of water? It shouldn't work. And yet — it does.Put your finger over the end of a straw, lift it out of a glass, and watch the water stay put. Simple, right? But what if you scaled that up — filled a champagne flute with water, covered the top with a thin card, flipped it upside down, and watched the water stay in place?That's the magic. And this experiment explains exactly why it works.But this guide goes deeper than just a cool party trick.Your young inventor will learn
