Archimedes Principle: Explained in Really Simple Words
Archimedes principle states that if an object is submerged in a fluid, then the buoyant force acting on it is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by that object. Buoyant force exists because pressure increases as an object goes...

The Density Cocktail Experiment
In this video, the concept of density is explored through a cocktail experiment. Different liquids with varying densities are layered in a glass container, demonstrating how liquids of different densities do not mix. The video also...

Fluids, Buoyancy, and Archimedes' Principle
Archimedes is not just the owl from the Sword in the Stone. Although that's a sweet movie if you haven't seen it. He was also an old Greek dude who figured out a bunch of physics way before other people did. Some of this was discovered...
