today on Zoom our invention is just as
complicated as a rub Goldberg machine it
uses 34 steps to pour milk into this

and hi Zoomers I'm eating sorbet it's
like ice cream made from fruit and now
now kayle's going to show you how to
make strawberry Som
day km of Manasses Virginia sent us this
recipe it's a really easy dessert to
make because the only ingredients you
need to make it with are strawberries
and sugar put 24 oz of frozen
strawberries that are slightly thawed
and 34 of a cup of sugar into a
blender I'll start off with a little bit
of strawberries and add more
there we go make sure that before you do
this you wash your hands here put a few
more there
okay some sugar wo that's a lot of sugar
sometimes you need to pack it down with
the wooden spoon that's what I'm going
to do smush them down so they're easier
to
blend there mixed in
okay put the cap back
on Okie
doy okay now I'm going to add more
strawberries here we
go
there okay
cover back
on
here
okay make sure the blender is turned off
before you take the cap off the
blender there okay now pour the mixture
into a baking
pan pour that
in
y there we
go put it into the freezer for about 2
hours here's one that's already
H I let it out at room temperature so it
could soften
okay now break it up with a wooden
[Music]
spoon
okay mush it
around there now pour it back into the
blender here actually think I'll scoop
it up it'll be
[Music]
easier
oops I dropped a little
here
okay
[Music]
there blend it until it's
smooth okay
there pour it into some dessert dish
es pour it in yummy I love strawberries
here we go put it back in the freezer
for 20
minutes if you want the recipe for
strawberry sorbet you can find it at the
zoom website
pbskids.org
[Music]
here this is what it looks like when
it's finished B
[Music]
appetite this is
awesome what's up what's up what's up
what's up what's up if you could put one
thing in a time capsule to be opened in
a thousand years what would it be I'd
probably put in a radio because most
likely they wouldn't have that in a
thousand years if I could put one thing
in a time capsule it would be a football
cuz football is my favorite sport my my
valuables uh such as my watch the
picture of my family something that I
would put in a time capsule to be open
in Thousand Years would probably be a TV
so people would know what Electronics
were like back then it would be a
newspaper so the people who would open
it in a thousand years would see what
happened in a thousand years um ago I
would put in a mined silver dollar that
I have um of my birth year if I could
put one thing in it's Time Capsule I
would probably
put myself in it so I could see what
it's like in the
[Music]

[Music]
job hi my name is Benjamin I am from him
peblo New Mexico and I am 11 years old
and I love to play
golf the object of the game is to get
this ball into a hole this big that
could be anywhere to 100 y to 600 y away
sounds easy
right I've been playing and taking
lessons since I was 6 years old if you
want to hit the bar really far you got
to use this club it is called the driver
if you want to hit your bar from a
medium distance you got to use your iron
and you want to hit the barall out of
the bunker you got to use your sand
wedge and to put the ball into the hole
you use your
[Music]
putter it takes a lot of practice and
patience to be good at
golf you have to practice just swing
over and over until becomes a habit of
your
body you got to get your grip and stance
just right before you hit the ball it
looks kind of silly
[Music]
sometimes every now and then I hit my
bar into the
[Music]
pushes and if you hit your ball into the
water forget
[Music]
it the fun part of golf is when you
drive the car you got to be
careful I can't drive a car till I'm 16
but I can drive a golf cart
now girls don't get to use to carts in
tournaments this is something I'm really
going to miss on night turn
pro what I like best about golf is that
I get to be
outside you get a master of skill and it
feels really good to hit the ball just
right
when you play a good game it is the most
fun thing in the
world Zoom reviews B Karen W of
Indianapolis Indiana sent us a review of
the picture book Lily's Purple Plastic
Purse written and illustrated by Kevin
hus this book is about a girl named Lily
who has just gotten a new Purple Plastic
Purse with movie star glasses and change
in it she takes it to school but gets in
trouble with her teacher when she plays
with it too much I really like this book
because it's funny and very sweet this
book is special because it's good for
the whole family my dad even likes it if
you're ready for a great picture book
read Lily's Purple Plastic Purse by
Kevin
henis
now we'd like to know about your
favorite book so be sure to go to the
review section of the zoom website and
tell us about
[Music]
it earlier on Zoom we started building
an invention that pours glass milk it's
the kind of invention that rub Goldberg
a guy who invented machines that made
simple tests very complicated would have
designed but since Ru Goldberg's
inventions were so complic at he never
ended up building them he only Drew
cartoons of them we've actually built
ours our invention is just as
complicated as a Ru Goldberg machine it
uses 34 steps to pour milk into this
glass last time we had about half of it
finished now the whole thing's
working it all starts when I press this
doorbell the doorbell completes an
electrical circuit which releases energy
from this battery that causes the fan to
turn the Turning fan moves this piece of
cardboard out of the way which lets this
marble fall through the
funnel because the marble is traveling
with so much energy when it hits the can
it gives it a little push and rolls
uphill which hits the next can which
also rolls up hill the reason they roll
up hill is because there are weights
taped inside of them the weights are
actually falling down and as they do
this they pull the can forward and up
the hill the last can knocks over this
Domino which starts this Domino chain
and knocks the astronaut off the table
the astronaut pulls on this string which
releases the clip from the tether ball
the tether ball then unwinds and knocks
over this chair which is going to land
on this lever which releases this green
string attached to the balloon the
balloon is then going to unwind and
deflate releasing these weights the
weights are going to knock this bottle
off the table the force of the the
falling bottle will pull on this green
string and pull the chair forward onto
the bridge where the marbles in this can
Will spill out
everywhere we use these meter sticks to
guide the marbles into this
balance as the balance moves it lets
this lever tilt and the chicken feet
roll
down the chicken feet hit with enough
Force to knock over this
book one book hits the next and as the
last book Falls it pulls a cork out of
this balloon car the inflated balloon
has a lot of energy because it's
stretched a balloon that is stretched
has more energy than a balloon that is
not
stretched so when the cork is pulled
from this balloon car the air in the
stretch to balloon is forced out and
moves the car forward which hits the
steel ball which rolls down the track
and acts like a switch the electricity
flows from this wire through the steel
ball and into this wire which then runs
the fan the fan blows this funnel which
has a needle attached to it down the
fishing line and Pops the
balloon the balloon releases this string
which is attached to this airplane
gravity makes the plane ZIP down this
cord and pushes this
wedge the wedge tilts up this bottle of
vinegar and the vinegar pours into this
balloon filled with baking soda the
chemical reaction between the two
creates a gas with enough Force to
inflate the balloons underneath this
plate when that happens it's going to
tilt the plate up and pour the
milk into the glass okay let's test that
our machine is ready ready okay Kaye go
ahead all our here
go
yes
yes oh it's
working
Swing
Swing
Swing
Swing Swing it's almost there swing one
more one more swing there one one yes
it yes look it's spinning
look come on it's working it's so
working yes
almost almost here comes some
more yes yes yes yes
yes
[Music]
yes
yes
yes yes look at it look at it it's going
up it's going up
yes look oh to the to the
m
yes so cool
so and for the test shall we here I'll
this
see pretty
good it worked we did it woo we yes so
did
it this R Goldberg invention was pretty
hard to build getting the cans to roll
uphill took a lot of adjustments and
believe it or not getting the chicken
feet to look like they were really
walking took the most time but it was
fun to see how one thing made other
things go try making your own R Goldberg
invention it doesn't have to be as
complicated as ours and send your
designs to

W my name is Ryan I'm Michael and I'm
Dan this is our invention the great and
Goofy Gumball Gizmo at first drove one
qu into the styrr cup it will connect
the two pieces of tin foil which will
then activate the fan which will spin
around the wheel and axle and release
the balloon the balloon will activate
the pendulum come swing down and knock
over this block of wood activating this
lever over here and the gumball will go
down and hit the Bell to tell you when
the gumballs are ready while the Sam was
spinning the wheel and axle the wheel
and axle was pulling this string which
was moving the little car up the
inclined plane when it gets to the top
of the inclined plane it will dump these
two gumballs into this bottle which will
dump them into the tube and drop them
into the big bottle down there and
that's where you can pick your gumballs
up okay let's give it a
[Music]
