enjambment of “love’s… hate” shows how easily love can change into hatred. The red balloon bursting shows her heart break. Red has traditionally been associated with courage and love in Western culture‚ but in China‚ red is the colour of happiness and good fortune. The RED balloon bursting shows her loving dieing and her good fortune dieing. The balloon can also symbolise her love leavening her flying away like a balloon fly’s away to the sky. Carol Ann Duffy uses the word “bang” as personification to

A balloon-powered car is powered by the air released in the straw. One must blow into the straw which inflates the balloon. When you blow up the balloon‚ set your racer down‚ and let it go‚ escaping air from the balloon rushes out of the straw causing propulsion. The principle at work is Newton’s Third Law of Motion‚ which states that for every action‚ there is an equal and opposite reaction. In the case of the Balloon Powered Car‚ the action is the air rushing from the straw. The reaction is the

The setting is 1950’s Paris‚ France. The main character is a young boy - perhaps seven. And the object of everyone’s desires is the red balloon. Somehow it seems sentient. Somehow it seems friendly. Directed by Albert Lamorisse‚ "The Red Balloon" is a strangely heartwarming short film about how an innocent desire can quickly spiral into a dangerous‚ and often destructive‚ form of envy. Because‚ as the saying goes‚ "if I can’t have it‚ no one can." In one of the early scenes‚ the audience sees the

Balloon powered car 1 How does the balloon car demonstrate that energy is transformed from potential energy to kinetic energy? Explain When the balloon has air inside it‚ the car and the balloon have potential energy stored inside it. When the air is released the car moves forward and has kinetic energy. 2 Where is most of the energy ’lost’ in this car? There is a number of different possible reasons that energy could have been lost in our car: some of the air in the balloon may have escaped through

Maria Chriscia Y. Andres 10- SCA Title: The Balloon Powered Car Racer Background of the Study: Sir Isaac Newton developed three laws of motion in 1665 when he was only 23 years old. These laws revolutionized how science explained movement by describing how the forces acting on an object are responsible for the object’s motion. Balloon powered car racer is driven by air coming from a deflating balloon. As an alternative of using electricity‚ these cars make use of the Law of Action and

The song I chose to do my project on is the song 99 Red Balloons‚ by the artist Gabriel Kerner‚ also known as Nena. This was one of the songs in the ’80s to make the point about how the war really affected the citizens and the countries themselves. The theme of this song is that overreacting right away is a bad thing. It can cause damage to you and to everything else around you. This song is representing the fact that the United States and the Soviet Union were caught up in the Cold War and it caused

issues the truth lies only within our heritage‚ our communities and within ourselves. We as human beings have the benefit of math and science to prove theories and explain just how something may or may not be accurate. As we learned from the "Red Balloon" video‚ things we believe to be the absolute truth may very well not be another person’s actuality. It is all dependent on what we have been taught by our families and the surroundings in our communities. Then all that is dependent on what we ourselves

involved when two objects interact. These three laws of motion apply to the balloon racer that I created. They clarify why and how the racer works in the first place. All in all‚ all of Newton’s laws of motion relate to my balloon racer. Newton’s first law of motion states that‚ unless acted on by an unbalanced force‚ an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion at a constant velocity. The balloon car would have stayed still‚ or at rest‚ if there was no unbalanced force
