This fun & easy experiment will test to see air does have weight. Set up a stand (I used a tripod) and a yard stick. I drilled a hole in the middle of the yardstick and 1" (3cm) from each side. Then placed a paper clip on each end. Then blew up 2 balloons and hung them on the paper clips. I had to blow a couple different balloons up so the weight was close to the same. Once I had the weight the same, I cut the top of one orange balloon (by the knot) and air started to come out. This made it look like the orange balloon that was cut (loosing air) was heavier, but it was the air escaping causing pressure pushing the orange balloon down and was misleading. Final results air does have weight! Once all the air was out of the orange balloon, the blue balloon (with air) show that air does have weight. Very cool. Let me know in the comments below if you try this experiment. I used 9" balloons, so you can try larger balloons to see if its a bigger difference. thanks for watching Ken
