2A10.10 |
soap film pullup |
A soap film pulls a sliding wire up a "U" shaped frame. |
2A10.11 |
sliding wire |
A sliding wire frame film with a spring on one end and a string pull on the other shows that tension does not increase with length. |
2A10.15 |
submerged float |
A cork and lead device floats with a wire ring above the surface. Push the ring below the surface and it remains until soap is added to reduce the surface tension. |
2A10.20 |
floating metals |
Float needles, paperclips, rings of wire, etc. on water. |
2A10.21 |
floating metal sheet |
Float a sheet of metal on the surface of distilled water and add weights until the metal sinks. |
2A10.25 |
leaky boats |
Try to float several large (one foot long) flat bottomed boats made of different screen material or aluminum with different size holes. A screen boat, razor blade, or small metal boat with a large hole all float on water. |
