One thing that surprised me about the car was that the car tires were filled with nitrogen gas instead of compressed air. Nitrogen is a colorless and odorless non-toxic gas used to reduce the temperature of the tire and increase its lifespan. In races, it may be able to keep tire pressure more constant and slow pressure loss without reacting to the tire and rim materials. Another thing that surprised me about the car was its design and build. What really caught my eye was that the inside of the…

Squidy was a little “squid” in a 2 liter bottle that floated at the top, and when you squeezed the bottle, Squidy sank to the bottom. Then, when you released the bottle, Squidy would float back up to the top. Squidy used some of the gas laws and principles we learned in class such as: Boyle’s law, Pascal’s law, and Archimedes principle. Pascal's law plays a major role in Squidy. Pascal's law is about applying pressure, and when we applied pressure to the bottle, it forced Squidy to sink. The…
