Tea Bag Rocket

Tea Bag Rocket( tipeke takirirangi)





Did you know that if you light a tea bag(tipeke) on fire(murmura) it will fly(rango)
into the air! Wingardium Leviosa!

When you light the tea bag(tipeke)on fire it continues to burn going downwards instead of upwards.
This is because the molecules in the tea bag(tipeke) are below not above the fire(muramura) which
causes it to burn downwards.

As the fire(muramura) hits the bottom(whakatakere) of the tea bag(tipeke) it lifts into the air and
goes about 6(ono) metres into the air. The reason the tea bag lifts into the air is because there is
the perfect ratio of cold and hot air(hau takiwa) which makes the density(kiato) lower making the
tea bag(tipeke) lighter than the air causing it to float(pouto) like what we do in the pool(hopua)
because we have a lower density(kiato) then the water(wai).

This is why if you light a tea bag(tipeke) on fire(muramura) it floats(pouto)!
