  1. The Balancing Act By Queeny

  2. The Aim The aim is to make the can stand on the rim by itself.

  3. Materials • 100ml of water • 2 soft drink cans • A secret friend

  4. Method • Pour your 100ml of water into one of the soft drink cans • Then get your secret friend • Let them try and balance the can that does not have water in it on the rim • Now you try but with the can that has water in it • Watch it balance and it will not fall over

  5. Result I saw that the can did not fall over and as long as I waited it will still balance unlike the other can.

  6. Conclusion It kept on balancing because the centre of gravity moved from the middle onto a tilt. So it is directly above the point it has been balanced on.

  7. Challenge I tried a lot of items for instance a pen, tooth picks, glasses, stamps and cups, but it did not work.
