Water Rocket

A two liter soda bottle is filled with 400ml of water and pressurized to 8 atmospheric pressures.

When the bottom clamp is released, the soda bottle becomes a rocket that can reach a height in excess of 150 meters. This activity is used with students to study rockets. This rocket is photographed with a high speed flash.
