Elementary STEM Club students constructed an explanation of how energy is stored, released, and transferred in a chain reaction by weaving popsicle sticks into what is called the “Cobra Wave.” The cobra wave is a popular physical phenomenon arising from the explosion of popsicle sticks. The sticks are expelled from the woven mesh by releasing the elastic energy stored during the weaving of the structure in a chain reaction.
