Hold an empty plastic bottle upside down over a pan of boiling water. Ensure the bottle is positioned so as not to burn your hand by using tongs or a protective glove to hold the bottle in place for several minutes. The bottle will fill with steam. Remove bottle (still upside down) from boiling water area and immediately cap the bottle. As the bottle and the steam cool down, the bottle sides collapse. Explain the principles that cause this to occur.
