When the valve is opened, the smaller balloon shrinks and the larger balloon expands. The two-balloon experiment is an experiment involving interconnected balloons. It is used in physics classes as a demonstration of elasticity. Two identical balloons are inflated to different diameters and connected by means of a tube.

To test the hypothesis, Cannon designed an innovative experiment in which A.L. Washburn swallowed a deflated rubber balloon attached to a tube. Once the balloon was inside Washburn's stomach, it was inflated. The pressure of the balloon against the stomach walls was used to measure the strength of contractions.
The cast of the television series MythBusters perform experiments to verify or debunk urban legends, old wives' tales, and the like. This is a list of the various myths tested on the show as well as the results of the experiments (the myth is either busted, plausible, or confirmed).
Balloon skewer experiment. A pin or needle is frequently used to pop a balloon. [4] As the needle or pin creates a hole on the balloon surface, the balloon pops. However, if tape is placed on the part where the hole is created, the balloon will not pop since the tape helps reinforce the elastic tension in that area, preventing the edges of the hole pulling away from the center.

BESS is a particle physics experiment carried by a balloon. BESS stands for Balloon-borne Experiment with Superconducting Spectrometer. [1] See also
Trappe continued to experiment in cluster ballooning flights. In 2011, he replicated the floating house from the animated film Up for a National Geographic television program. [28] On July 6, 2015, Daniel Boria of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, tied about 100 helium balloons to a garden chair and flew over his city in a publicity stunt.
A toilet plume is the invisible cloud-like dispersal of potentially infectious microscopic sewage particles & water vapor as a result of flushing a toilet. [1] Science has demonstrated that these particles rapidly rise out of the bowl and several feet into the air after flushing.
