Air resistance! It's a thing! In this episode of Crash Course Kids, Sabrina does her own Astronaut Experiment to show us how we can prove it!

Heating up the air inside a plastic bottle with hot water and then cooling it down with cold to see how balloon reacts.

Chemistry is the study of matter - stuff, and how it interacts with other stuff. Even though chemistry doesn't make a lot of news these days, chemists are making discoveries that change lives all the time. If Hank had to narrow down all...

Squeaks went on a trip to the beach, and wants to tell Mister Brown all about it! And, we can learn all about the science that formed the beach, plus a guest appearance by Grady the tardigrade to talk all about the plants and animals in...

Are you a bored adult or a parent stuck at home? Try these DIY science experiments! SAFETY TIPS FOR TEA BAG ROCKET • Flammable surfaces: DO NOT light tea bags on a flammable surface. Experiment should be conducted on a fireproof surface,...

Do explosions actually throw people into the air? If so, how powerful would it have to be and could our hero survive such a fiery boom?

This is an impressive but simple experiment for children. We did it with Alex about two years ago, so it was Max's turn now. But this time I added a bit of a twist though. I spread food colouring on the bottom of tea candle, lighted it...

Sound Wave Experiments In this video, we are going to look at the factors that influence the speed of sound and how to measure it. We will look at sound waves in more detail in another video: Sound Waves Sound travels at about 340m/s in...

Weather lessons come alive for students in simple experiments and demonstrations. Kids show the basic principles of weather in these easy experiments and demonstrations. Using everyday materials, watch how to make a tornado in a bottle....

Food Files, Series 3: We investigate the science behind airplane food and why it tastes so different up in the air. Discover how factors such as cabin pressure, dry air, and noise can affect our taste buds and how airline chefs try to...

DIY SCI host Steve Spangler demonstrates the power of air pressure using a mason jar and drink coaster.

Air and moisture in different quantities comprise our atmosphere. The sun is the energy source that causes temperature change, wind, clouds, rain, dew, blue skies and rainbows. See how to build an instrument called a "sling psychrometer"...

NASCAR tires don't have "air pressure" because they're filled with nitrogen. The culprit responsible for increasing tire pressure during a race is friction. Using dry nitrogen gas helps the team predict how hot the tire will get and how...

DIY SCI host Steve Spangler demonstrates how using heat and a little water can cause air pressure to crush a can!

Slow-motion fire experiment in microgravity done by dropping a box with a GoPro and candle inside. Physics Girl tests a candle in free-fall.

DIY SCI host Steve Spangler demonstrates how the egg in the bottle experiment works.

A racecar driver is like Goldilocks: The car always seems to be too loose or too tight. Getting the right balance is hard because the weight of the fuel changes and the tires wear during each green-flag run. Understanding the science is...
