About This Product
When the two hemispheres are fitted together and the air inside is pumped out through the stop cock, atmospheric pressure presses them together so firmly that they are hard to pull apart. Opening the stop cock lets air back in, and they separate easily. The demonstration needs an air pump or vacuum pump to remove the air, and it shows clearly that the atmosphere exerts a large pressure.
