Grade-III & IV Jr. Scientist Club - Tornado in a Bottle
The Tornado in a Bottle experiment teaches kids about the concept of fluid dynamics and centripetal force. By swirling the bottle, they observe how the water moves in a circular motion due to the centrifugal force. The addition of dish soap reduces the surface tension, creating a vortex and mimicking the formation of a tornado. This experiment provides a visual representation of how these forces work and helps children understand the science behind tornadoes in a simple and engaging way.
