  8. Soda Can Crusher

    This small amount of condensed water cannot exert much pressure on the inside walls of the can, and none of the outside air can get back into the can. The result is the pressure of the air pushing from the outside of the can is great enough to crush it. The sudden collapsing of an object toward its center is called an implosion. Nature wants ...

  9. Collapsing Can Experiment

    However, the air pressure is large enough to crush a soda can. You can see the air crush a can in this experiment. For this experiment you will need: an empty aluminum soft-drink can a 2- or 3-liter (2- or 3-quart) saucepan a pair of kitchen tongs Fill the saucepan with cold water. Put 15 milliliters (1 tablespoon) of water into the empty soft ...

  10. How to do the Air Pressure Can Crushing Experiment

    In this air pressure experiment, we will show you how you can crush an empty soda can using nothing else but a heat source and water. Your kids will love the...

  12. Can Crush by Air Pressure

    The heated air inside the can contracts when exposed to the cold water in the bowl. The atmospheric pressure crushes the can. Fill the bowl with cold water. Put about 1oz or 30mL in the can. Place the can on the hot plate and allow the water to heat. Once Steam is visible from the top of the can, quickly with gloves or tongs, flip the can ...

  13. Watch The Can Collapse Before Your Eyes

    The Demonstrations: An Aluminum can is crushed using only air pressure! Quick Physics: When the can is heated, the water inside boils and escapes. When the can is put in the cold water, a partial vacuum is created, crushing the can. The Details: The collapsing can demonstrates that things contract, or get smaller, when they….
