Firemen in Belgium assist in an ambitious experiment to lift a car using water pressure alone. Watch as they use multiple fire hoses and high-pressure water jets to achieve this extraordinary feat. Discover the science and teamwork...

DIY SCI host Steve Spangler demonstrates the power of air pressure using a mason jar of water and a drink coaster.

This is an impressive but simple experiment for children. We did it with Alex about two years ago, so it was Max's turn now. But this time I added a bit of a twist though. I spread food colouring on the bottom of tea candle, lighted it...

Paul Andersen explains how populations experience exponential. He begins by address the major players; N (population size) and r (growth rate). He models population growth in rabbits through four generations. He then shows you how to...

Are you a bored adult or a parent stuck at home? Try these DIY science experiments! SAFETY TIPS FOR TEA BAG ROCKET • Flammable surfaces: DO NOT light tea bags on a flammable surface. Experiment should be conducted on a fireproof surface,...

This video explains the surprising phenomenon of how a bottle with holes in the bottom can hold water without leaking until the cap is opened. It uses simple physics to illustrate how the forces of air and water balance out to create a...

Here's an amazing science trick that looks like magic - stick pencils right through a plastic bag filled with water... without any water leaking out! But do this activity outside because the water will spill when you pull the pencils...

Sound Wave Experiments In this video, we are going to look at the factors that influence the speed of sound and how to measure it. We will look at sound waves in more detail in another video: Sound Waves Sound travels at about 340m/s in...

DIY SCI host Steve Spangler demonstrates how using heat and a little water can cause air pressure to crush a can!

DIY SCI host Steve Spangler demonstrates how to crush a can using a little bit of water, some heat, and air pressure!

Air and moisture in different quantities comprise our atmosphere. The sun is the energy source that causes temperature change, wind, clouds, rain, dew, blue skies and rainbows. See how to build an instrument called a "sling psychrometer"...

Weather lessons come alive for students in simple experiments and demonstrations. Kids show the basic principles of weather in these easy experiments and demonstrations. Using everyday materials, watch how to make a tornado in a bottle....

Fishes survive underwater pressure as they do not breathe through their lungs. Therefore, they do not have air pockets that can be compressed due to the high pressures. However, fish aren’t the only creatures found at such incredible...

Learn about buoyancy and pressure in this physics experiment! See why the scale reading stays the same, even with a steel sphere submerged. Perfect for students curious about forces, pressure, and fluid dynamics.<b<br/>r/>

DIY SCI host Steve Spangler demonstrates the extreme crushing power of air pressure by crushing a steel drum!

Prof Hal Sosabowski reveals the explosive power of subliming dry ice, in this demonstration to show that gases take up much more space than solids. As dry ice turns directly from a solid into a gas, its volume tries to increase...

In this section, I talk about the properties of water, and what makes it unique. I talk about hydrogen bonds that result from the polar nature of water and why ice floats.



I also deal with diffusion and go into the 3 factors...

Gallium Vs High Pressure Tank

How does soap change the surface tension of water? I have used my degree to make a fifth video -- for you all -- to explain this very question.

In this video, we explore the fascinating properties of non-Newtonian fluids, specifically an oobleck made from water and starch. By introducing sound vibrations, we observe how the oobleck transforms and behaves in unique ways, forming...

Hank uses a favorite subject of the YouTube community - the potato gun - to teach us about the principles of pneumatics, which use the potential energy of compressed gas to do work in lots of useful machines every day.

This Halloween, try the classic science experiment with the candle under a glass with a vampire twist! This simple spooky science experiment is perfect for the holiday season! If you little scientist asks why the vampire sucked all the...
