Laser Balloon

The video explores the effects of laser light on balloons of different colors. It begins by explaining the power of a laser compared to sunlight. Experiments are conducted with red, blue, and white balloons to demonstrate how color affects the balloon's reaction to laser light. The red balloon reflects the laser, the blue balloon absorbs it and pops, while the white balloon remains unaffected due to its reflective properties. An additional experiment tests popping an inside balloon without affecting the outside one. Safety precautions with lasers are also highlighted.

Why does the red balloon not pop when hit by the red laser?

• The balloon absorbs the laser light.

• The balloon is too strong.

• The laser is not powerful enough.

• The red balloon reflects red light.

What happens to the blue balloon when it is hit by the laser?

• It absorbs the laser light and pops.

• It reflects the laser light.

• It remains intact.

• It changes color.

What is the main reason the white balloon does not pop when hit by the laser?

• The laser is not powerful enough.

• It is made of a stronger material.

• It reflects all colors of light.

• It absorbs all colors of light.

Why does a white car stay cooler than a black car on a sunny day?

• White cars have better air conditioning.

• White cars reflect sunlight, while black cars absorb it.

• White cars are made of cooler materials.

• Black cars are closer to the ground.

In the experiment with the clear and glue balloons, what was the outcome?

• Both balloons popped.

• Neither balloon popped.

• Only the clear balloon popped.

• Only the glue balloon popped.

What safety precaution is emphasized when handling the laser?

• Use a shield to block the laser.

• Keep the laser turned off when not in use.

• Wear protective gloves.

• Wear protective eyewear.

What did the 8-year-old girl suggest in the balloon experiment?

• To add more balloons.

• To use a different color laser.

• To reverse the positions of the balloons.

• To use a stronger laser.
