Hypothesis
The first hypothesis is that nuts are able to store energy. Our second hypothesis is that the cashew nut will have a higher energy storage capacity than the peanut.
Background
Nuts
Normally, a nut has a hard outer shell that shelters the edible inner part. This inner part is essentially a seed which is edible. Nuts are a rich source of protein. Unlike carbohydrates, proteins do not supply us with sharp and quick bursts of energy. Instead, it provides a slow but long lasting supply of energy.
Different types of nuts provide different kinds of nutritional benefits. Almonds, for example, contain many proteins. They are also rich in iron and potassium. Cashew nuts contain many kinds of amino acids, and copper. Walnuts contain many kinds of Omega-3 fatty acids. These acids serve as a source of energy for our organs and muscles.
Nuts can be eaten raw. They can also be roasted or cooked alongside other dishes. Nuts contain certain kinds of oils, and these can be extracted to make cooking oil or for other uses, including manufacturing of cosmetics. Wild animals depend on nuts for food. Animals such as squirrels collect nuts during autumn, storing them away for winter.
This experiment is super-easy. You'll be making an awesome wiring noise in a matter of seconds! First put the nut inside the balloon.
STEP2 - Blow up the balloon with the nut inside and tie it up.
STEP3 - To really start on your nutty experiment you'll need to rotate the balloon gently and smoothly till the nut starts to spin around and around. The easiest way to do this is to have the balloon 'upside down' and to gently spin it round in a horizontal motion till the nut starts to spin.
What's going on?
Now you'll be hearing an awesome but pretty weird noise, let's find out why!
Every single sound you ever hear in your whole life is caused by a 'vibration'. When someone talks their throat vibrates, when you bang a drum the skin of the drum vibrates and that's what makes the noise.
