Excellent project spent 15 dollars and 2 hours putting together building rockets.... Son did 95 % himself and entertained family and friends for hours when project was done :)
a tip i have is to fold the top in while the pvc pipe is still there then smashing the top in that way the paper kind of makes its own seal, still add tape though
Perfect. I am looking for a simple ballistic project for Upward Bound this summer. This is it. Cheap, show students the video and let them build it. We will measure the distance as a function of the angle. We can record who launched it to help keep the force similar for each launch. I think we may put vanes on the fins to (perhaps) spin stabilize the rocket. (Upward Bound is part of the TRIO program in US Dept of Educ. Celebrated 50 years in 2015. Check it out. I am sort of retired and have been doing Upward Bound for 8 years. Plus tutoring for a community college. Both keep the neurons firing. )
This is great! I needed a Science Experiment for my students at our science fair at end of April! I will use this over another one I found. I am going to compare different bottle sizes to see which has the greater thrust give the same amount of pressure on the bottle. what do you think? thanks again1
+Roy Trost-Rekich The only trouble would be controlling how quickly the pressure is applied if someone steps on the bottle. Using a falling object would be the most consistent that I can think of off hand. In the classroom we use a pressurised PVC pipe with an electric sprinkler valve to launch rockets and it works great. Pressurize to 30PSI and then open the valve with three 9v batteries and the rockets fly impressively far. It's also very consistent.
You can use 2 bottles connected with 2 90 degree elbows and a "T" fitting between them then out to the 2 threaded elbows launch tube for more "thrust"! That way, you and a friend can jump on them together and have it fly even further. Then you can get 2 "chubby" friends to jump on the bottles and then it'll fly REAAAALLLLLLLLY far...........I think that's how Iran launched their scud missile's.
Hello I know it's been a while since you uploaded the video but I have a question? How far does the rocket go I really want something to impress my friends with.
Stomping on a 2-liter bottle it will go about 20 meters give or take. Using an air compressor at 80 psi and an electronic sprinkler valve, a good design will go closer to 100 meters.
Regular paper would probably be better as I think it may hold more pressure. If you don't have any other paper construction paper would work just won't hold quite the same pressure witch won't likley matter unless you use an air compressor to launch it much further.
You can totally reuse the bottle but the 100th rocket won't likley go quite as far as the first one. If you are doing a lot I would also have 1or 2 back-up bottles incase it breaks when stomping on it really hard.
Yes, you will need salt. You can salt out the water and get above 90% isopropyl but with salt dissolved. Then if you need to remove the salt you can use distillation to get relatively pure isopropyl mixed with very small amounts of water.
I wanted a video shot where the rocket landed in front of the camera looking back at me and if you stomp hard enough to get 300 feet the rocket is not accurate enough to land in front of the camera.
To work well the tube needs to fit tightly around the pvc pipe and cardboard might be too loose but experiment with cardboard and paper and see what you find out.
Air resistance will have a greater affect on a lower mass rocket. Someone better at calculus and physics than myself could find the best design but the lowest mass rocket also doesn't go very far unless it is in a vacuum.
@@BeardedScienceGuy "Someone better at calculus and physics than myself" Yep thats me. Im an actual Rocket Scientist and I did teach kids at Space Camp to make stomp rockets. You are way past the optimal mass to surface area ratio. 4 paperclips in the nose is optimal and doesn't make much difference, just increases the stability by lowering trim drag. Any heavier than that you get diminishing returns.
Thanks, thinking back this design was for our 80 psi electric sprinkler valve launcher and I just reused it for the stomp video. Covered the pvc in fiberglass after NASA pulled their plans after a launcher rupture. What are your thoughts on this design for the 80-100 psi launcher? We usually throw in a very slight tail fin angle for spin stabilization.
Anthony just curious where you went to school and where you work? Trust me, at higher launch pressures the light ones have stability issues. I'm not sure why as my background is primarily in Biology, Chemistry, and Teaching. However of the professional scientists I know, I can't think of one who would respond like that, thus my question about your credentials. Thanks

Same I spend 150 dollars 6 hours to complete my school project
This youtuber just leaked north korean nuclear missle plans
Hi
Yay now we can eat the rockets!
I am thanking to you for the great idea you have shared. God bless you Sir.
a tip i have is to fold the top in while the pvc pipe is still there then smashing the top in that way the paper kind of makes its own seal, still add tape though
Thank you so much! We homeschool and this was an awesome(affordable)project for STEM.
+Angela Long If you google NASA paper rockets they have designed STEM lessons and experiments to try.
Angela Long ok. welcome

If the fins are applied to the body at a slight angle it will also stabilize with slight spin.
No words to explain that's a great idea
Hi can I ask if all the 1/2 pvc pipes you used were a foot long?
I like that you keep construction simple.
Wow this is amazing! :)
Thanks needed this for my tech class

Next time, how to make a nuclear reactor with uranium and a LOT of electrical tape :D
Nice teach cildren
Uh Yea, this is big brain time.
yeah he should make that i would be cool
@@sealmango3666lol
😂🤣
i like how you showed the rocket
wow its so amazing

HEYY Don't reveal their secrets, you know its top-secret Iran stuff
You are the best person ever
am definitely gonna pass class.thx bruv.
Um mm what if you don't have the pipes what do you use please help me l am going to be having a project like that
As a kid I want to be a scientist partly because of this.
I tried this multiple times but endeavor works also they cost way more than $5
very nice brother
How many rolls of electrical tape are required for this project?
great video

Bill Nye the science guy. BILL BILL. BILL BILL BILL BILL BYE THE SCOENCE GUYYYYYY
Could you substitute construction paper for card stock? And can you substitute pool noodles (with minor adjustments) for the PVC pipe?
Regular paper would probably be better as I think it may hold more pressure. If you don't have any other paper construction paper would work just won't hold quite the same pressure witch won't likley matter unless you use an air compressor to launch it much further.
That was nice man
Helpful
Can you reuse the 2 liter bottle, or do you recommend changing it out each time?
You can totally reuse the bottle but the 100th rocket won't likley go quite as far as the first one. If you are doing a lot I would also have 1or 2 back-up bottles incase it breaks when stomping on it really hard.
I plan on trying this with my kids this summer when we go camping
What is the benifit of elbows ? Why didn't make it straight ? Because the elbows effect on the air flow which is the source of flying
Fahd Bin Rasheed The elbow allows for an easily adjustable launching angle but it does decrease the power at witch the rocket is launched.
Loved the video.
My school have a competition on building paper rocket and launching it. Me and my partner manage to make it fly over 30 meters
Zníper Vutron did you win?
I like your beard
This works AMAZING!!
Yes it work well
this is super!
Wow amazing nice 😃😃
Good
How many stomps until you need to replace the bottle?
Nice
Ooo fantastic
Is there any way to increase the isopropyl of an alcohol from 75 to 95 percent?
Yes, you will need salt. You can salt out the water and get above 90% isopropyl but with salt dissolved. Then if you need to remove the salt you can use distillation to get relatively pure isopropyl mixed with very small amounts of water.
Wow
So how do you get the bottle to blow back up to step on it again?
Im a year late but u just press it on the bent sides
I am doing this for a project, thank you very much epic gamer 🙂
same
same
Brought to you by the acme electrical tape company.
Nice bro
I make rocket but is not flying straight how do i do that
this title should be how to subdue the attention of 100 after school program 8 year olds in one shot
Great
you are so underrated, keep it up
Umm, that rocket went like 50 feet. What happened to 300 feet?
I wanted a video shot where the rocket landed in front of the camera looking back at me and if you stomp hard enough to get 300 feet the rocket is not accurate enough to land in front of the camera.
good
How long are the pipes?
Superb sir . I can use for my school science project or for science day
when he slid the paper up and down the tube........ it just looked wrong
cool
i wish i had all that stuf
That was legit
Card board challenge!!!;
Awesome
I will come first in science week thx bro
So easy technics....
Does the rocket have to fit in the pvc pipe loosely or tight?
It should fit as tight as you can where it still slides up and down the PVC easily.
so how many rolls of electrical tape do you need?
Kamika C 1 million rolls
lots
Awsome
How old would be too young, or how how old would be too old on kids to demonstrate?
i did this experiment today at my school and my rocket went nearly 70 feet in the air! I have a video of it aswell if anyone wants to see.
wow thank you
UPDT
I have watched almost all your videos ^ _ ^
Is NOT 1/2” pipe, is a 3/4”
Easy hot air balloon balloon banana sikhaye
what are the materials?
you can make better of this version less than 1$ on indonesia
you can just wrap paper around a straw and blow it. no cost at all
what method is the building process
why not do a rocket using cocka cola cans that realy flies get it.😀😁🤣
I as watching this video in stem yeastrday
You are here because of quarantine
What if he cuts his beard😎😂🤣
Dun Dun Dun!
angle?
Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww 😂😂😂
lies! i paid $ 5.07
I do in my school exibution
This 👍
i like kite
I can not make perfect 😭
we can use cardbord
To work well the tube needs to fit tightly around the pvc pipe and cardboard might be too loose but experiment with cardboard and paper and see what you find out.
lol i used the same audio music for this intro for my channel trailer
Hi
2018 anyone
I don't know when its science
Javier
it is not good it is wastag of tape
I can do this
wow so many coments
add bg Music !
+Tayyab Hasan why dont you add your own, your internet browser can support more than one tab
this is how not to do it. what does that rocket weigh like 2 pounds. use thin paper and cellophane tape.
