Water will fill empty spaces
Wednesday, November 11th 2008
Teacher got a candle. She put it on a stand, in a basin, with coins beside it. Then she put a glass jar (full of air) over the candle.
She put some water in the basin.
Teacher lit the candle. The candle stayed lighting in the air for a while, until all the air got used up. Then the candle went out. Now because the jar was empty (all the air was used up) the water rushed in to fill the space in the jar. Look at all the water that rushed into the jar to fill up the space that the air used to take.
