Science Experiment: Sink or Float
Have you ever wondered if an orange would float or sink? It turns out that this is a question that many people ask, and the answer may surprise you. It turns out that not all materials float on water! How does density come into play?...

Finding Density: Will the Wood Float?
In this video, we learn how to determine if a block of wood will float without placing it in water. This demonstrates the relationship between density and whether an object will sink or float. Metric Mass and Volume part 7/10

Buoyancy: The Forces That Determine Why Objects Float or Sink
Discover the forces at work underwater, which dictate why large boats float but small pebbles sink. Physics - Forces - Learning Points. The buoyant force is an upward-acting force determined by the weight of the displaced water. Ships...

Forces in Fluids: Buoyancy and Density
Upon viewing the Forces in Fluids video series, students will be able to do the following: Define fluids as substances that can easily flow and readily change shape. Explain that fluids flow because particles can easily move past each...

Pressure Differences in Fluids and Upthrust
The video is a lecture presentation on pressure differences in fluids. The presenter explains the concept that the weight of a fluid gives rise to a pressure at all points in the fluid and demonstrates how to calculate differences in...

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...

Does Water Make Grease Fires Worse?
Water and oil do not mix (immiscible liquids) because water is polar and grease oil is non-polar. They do not form intermolecular bonds and instead repel each other. There is a separation of oil and water layers. The denser liquid falls...
