   When the friction of the sparker creates fire temperature increases and if im right Charles law states the increase in temperature is the increase in volume of a gas. The increase in volume creates a higher pressure because the ping pong ball attempts hold in the gas but the force of pressure is to great overpowering it cause the ball becoming a projectile. Also the fire dies out with the plate because fire need oxygen atoms and or oxygen molecules because oxygen is highly flammable

   The air is probably clogging up in there and when you push on it the air pushes the two metel parts together which makes enough force to make a ping pong poppet

   When the sparks hit the rubbing alcohol, it causes a reaction, making fire. That also causes pressure, forcing the ball out.

   When the rubbing alcohol was exposed to the flame, it created an exothermic reaction which caused the air to heat up and expand, thus pushing out the ping pong ball.
