INTRODUCTION:
In this project were going to be exploring the Conservation Law, by using just
a soda can and some fire. This project will explain and demonstrate how the
Conversation of energy works and also the concept of Newtons third law(Action
equal to reaction). Our goals is to observe how energy is apply to a boil can of small
BACKGROUND:
The law of the conservation of the energy state that Energy cannot be
created or destroyed, but only changed from one form into another or transferred
from one object to another. This law apply to everything in our life. There are alot of
kind of energy. The basic one is potential and kinetic energy. Potential energy is an
energy store from it position, it can be convert to heat and chemical energy.
Accroding from the equation PE = mgh, this type of energy depend on mass height
of the object. Moreover, this energy can be convert to Kinetic energy.The Kinetic
energy is an energy of motion. The fomula of this energy is KE = 1/2mv^2. This type
of energy depend on the mass and speed of the object. Moreover, this law can be
relate to another law we are using in this project. When an object have been push or
pull by forces ,it is apart of conservation of energy, as we know we will be push back
the same amount of force acting on the object. This are the Third law of Newtons or
law of interaction. The Third law of Newtons states that For every action, there is an
all apply to our life. Moreover, we can prove these law by our model in this project.
This will prove that these law are eventually close to our life that we didnt even think
of.

DESCRIPTION:
This process started from the electricity power tranfer to heat energy,
heating the hot plate under the can. According to the state conservation energy,
energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can changed into another form. The
heat temperature then affect the bond of the water molecules inside the can to
seperate. The molecules of the warm water vapor have high kinetic energy, which
increases the pressure inside the can and thus forces of the gas release through
the holes in the sides of the can. Then the force of the vapor push the air outside
and create an opposite reaction force on the can. Finally it converted to kinetic
energy as the escaping water vapor causes the can to rotate. Some of the energy
from the escaping water vapor is also partially converted to potential energy as the

can, using the pressure generated by carbonation to force the soda out
warm it.
7. Waiting for the can and water to heat.
8. Gently warm the can and water. Water vapor will eventually exit both
holes and should result in a net force that sets the can spinning.
soda can. The heat energy was applied on the can making the water in can boiled,
then the boiled water create a steam inside of the can causing to create pressure,
which is a energy. The holes on the side of the can lets the steam came out and
push the can, making the two holes that were pierce push the can in a tangent
direction making the can to spin. As the water is boiled the steam that came out is
control by the two holes making the speed and energy is conserve. As for the steam
thats caming out of the holes are the heat energy in the water that was covert in
status.
