Buoyancy: From A Bowling Ball To A Basketball

E. What would happen if you dropped the object into the beaker while using the Archimedes’ Principle method instead of submerging the object?

This hypothesis is based off of the idea of water density and how it changes when a substance is added or removed. A material's density is defined as its mass per unit volume. It is, essentially, a measurement of how tightly matter is crammed together (Jones, 2015). Every matter in the world has its own specific density. Density can be calculated by multiplying the mass times the volume. Water's density can change when a substance is added or when the temperature is increased or decreased with the normal density of water is just under 1 gram per

Because there is surface tension the water molecules will adhere together to create a skin sheet that can hold the horizontal needle up. The vertical needle breaks through the sheet. If the horizontal needle was wet and to tried to get the needle to float it would not do so. The needles that were dropped horizontally that did not touch the water horizontal would not float because part of the needle is already sinking before the rest of the needle hits the water.

Attraction between water molecules which allows insects and other objects to float a top the water

because each of the objects displaced the water by 1 mL, their mass over that mL is their density.

“Playing basketball can be hard work. Players not only have to run around the court, but just dribbling the basketball takes some serious effort, too.” (“Surface Science: Where Does a Basketball Bounce Best?”). Energy reserved inside the ball, transfers into Different types of energy (ex. Heat, sound) when the ball hits the ground. But, which type of court restores the most energy back into the ball?

not float like a balloon or sink below the line and should be formed from the top and not the bottom.

Buoyancy the ability or tendency to float in water or air or some other fluid. I will tell you about an upward force of the fluid which resists the weight of immersed objects. The density of the atmosphere depends on the altitude. Can you tell me about buoyancy in simple words? It tells you about the ability of an object to float on the water or liquid. You can determine whether the object will float or not by checking the relation between the weight of the water and the weight of the

The more and more I look around I begin to see how physics are integrated into practically everything that we do. These things would surely go unnoticed without making a conscious effort to notice them. For example simple things like riding a bike, or driving a car, or playing catch with a son or daughter. Just as these activities are loaded with elements of physics, sports are also, especially basketball. Physics play a part in every aspect of the game, from dribbling, passing, and shooting, to things as simple as setting a screen. First we should take a look at the elements of dribbling.

The most important part of the game of basketball is shooting the basketball, after all the object of the game is to put the basketball through the basket. A

When I dropped the egg off the balcony i took about 3 seconds to come down and when it hit the ground the cotton balls absorbed the shock and the egg did not break. I think our contraption to hold

Asked to give one reason for floating or sinking, Daniel gives initially the weight ([03:08] and [06:42]) then he adds the shape [06:42]. Jessica first gives:

becomes a liquid and some may even evaporate but we know as it is in us to know that it is the same piece of

Chlorine is heavier than air, and therefore it will remain near the ground in areas with little air movement.1

On Earth, there is something special that keeps everything from floating into space. What is it? (Gravity.)
