A Candle

Experiment from Amanda, Nikola & Martyna

To our experiment we need a candle, a funnel and match.
When you blow next to a candle flame you create a stream of air. The air pressure outside the stream is bigger than the pressure inside. The pressure difference causes movement of the outer layers towards the interior of the air stream. Candle flame bends indicating the direction of the created air movement.
