Abstract

We conducted simple experiments and derived physics equations to explain the working principle of a bamboo rifle. This toy is often played by children in many places that have bamboo plants, such as in ASEAN countries. We identified two main physical processes: mechanics and thermodynamics of gas which controls the firing mechanism of such a rifle.
