This collapsing metal can makes a good introduction to air pressure for any age student. The can, when evacuated by a hand pump, will crumple right before your eyes. You can also boil a small amount of water inside to drive out all the air, then cap it and let it cool. Includes one sturdy metal can, rubber stopper with hose nipple to evacuate can, and screw cap. 23 x 17 x 10 cm in size. This item is single use only.

.Nature, of course, abhors a vacuum - and sound waves won't travel through one. Prove it with a ringing bell inside a sealed glass jar. As air is gradually pumped out of the jar, the bell becomes faint, then dies. Includes jar, vacuum plate with valve, rubber seal, bell system, and instructions. You need a vacuum pump and 2 AA batteries, not included. Bell may be removed for other vacuum experiments. The inside height is 8", the diameter is 8".
