Students use their understanding of projectile physics and fluid dynamics to find the water pressure in water guns. By measuring the range of the water jets, they are able to calculate the theoretical pressure. Students create graphs to...

Students discover fluid dynamics related to buoyancy through experimentation and optional photography. Using one set of fluids, they make light fluids rise through denser fluids. Using another set, they make dense fluids sink through a...

A laboratory activity that teaches the difficult concept of radioactive decay by means of a fluid (shampoo) flowing through holes from an upper to a lower beaker. Using the exponential decay equation, students then 'date' the shampoo....

A gallery of images depicting various fluid dynamics situations.

This page contains information about analyzing the motion of a fluid using volume flow rate equation.

A webpage dedicated to explaining how to analyze fluid flow using the Bernoulli's equation. Understand how thishhhhh equation will give you the powers to analyze a fluid flowing up and down through all kinds of different tubes.

Explanation of complex and dynamic cell structures that are selective in regards to what is allowed to enter and exit cells.

Adjust the amount of force in this simulated piston to observe how the fluid in this system is affected.

You can actually make objects come together by blowing air between them. This is a simple way of implementing Bernoulli's principle. Find out how wind changes air pressure to bring to objects together in this easy and fun science fair...

Become an engineer for a day and discover the best way to keep from rocking the boat in this engineering science fair project. When a ship rocks back and forth, it can make people seasick, but also it makes it dangerous for jets to land...

Young scholars are introduced to the physics concepts of air resistance and launch angle as they apply to catapults. This includes the basic concepts of position, velocity and acceleration and their relationships to one another. They use...

Using examples of athletes and sports involved in the 2012 Summer Olympics, these 9 videos demonstrate aspects of sports which are influenced by engineering and technology.

Question and answer regarding the basic differences between a vortex and the Venturi effect.

This is a general Physics course from simple concepts such as the rectilinear movement to more complex as the energy bands of solids. Interactivity is achieved by the 646 applets embedded in web pages that are simulations of physical...

Track an unseen target with an audio meter, and make accurate estimations of distance and depth by analyzing the signal strength and frequency. Construct an electroscope to detect electric charges.

Sociodramatic play is where children act out imaginary situations and stories, become different characters, and pretend they are in different locations and times. Sociodramatic play is the most advanced form of play, and constantly...

Detailed site dealing with pressure and force. The site is very complete with numerous examples and illustrations.

This cellular biology page presents extensive detail on the chemical nature of the cell membrane. Using the Chime plug-in, students can manipulate and study models of the membrane.

Geostrophic balance is arguably the most central concept in physical oceanography and dynamical meteorology. A key feature of geostrophic balance is that rather than flowing from high to low pressure, the fluid actually moves parallel to...
