Science experiment 1: Air exists

This term are topic is on movment and force. This is an expeirment that proves air exists.

AIR EXISTS


Equipment:
  • Container full of water
  • Jar
  • Paper towel

Method:
  • Put the paper towel in the jar. Try and keep the paper towel big so it doesn't fall out  
  • Turn the jar upside down and push it to the bottom quickly (If there are bubbles it probably hasn't worked)
  • Quickly pull the jar back up and check the paper towel is dry if it is wet the experiment has failed

Question:
Will the paper towel stay dry in the jar or not?

Prediction/Explanation:
Yes the paper towel will stay dry because it is cushioned by the air

Observe
We put the paper towel in the jar and quickly put it in the water.Most of it stayed dry but a tiny bit was sticking out. On our last go it was completely dry.
