"It had long been a theory that a liquid did not retain its shape when removed from its container. However, scientists were forced to change that theory after observing the photographs shown here. The photographs show that the water in the balloon retained its balloon shape for 12 to 13 millionths of a second after the balloon had been burst by a dart." |
"Science requires careful observations of the world around us. For example, using a highspeed camera and flash, it is possible to study, in great detail, the way the water in a water balloon behaves when the balloon bursts." |

"The density of water increases with depth. In other words, the density of water increases as you go deeper under the surface of the water. So the density of deep water is greater than 1 g/mL. At a certain depth, the scuba diver's density is equal to the water's density. The diver will not be able to sink below this depth." |
"To return to the water's surface, the diver's overall density must be less than 1 g/mL. How can the diver decrease her density? By increasing her overall volume without significantly increasing her mass. Divers wear a vest that they can fill with air. As air enters the vest, the diver's volume is increased, but the change in mass is very small. This increase in volume decreases the diver's density to less than 1 g/mL, causing the diver to slowly rise to the water's surface." |

Demonstrating Inertia
Obtain a playing card or index card, several coins of different sizes, and an empty glass. Place the card on top of the glass.
Use the coins to design an experiment whose results can be explained using Newton's first law of motion. You should show that an object with more mass has more inertia. |
Demonstrating Inertia
Tape one end of a length of string (1 m) to a table tennis ball. Suspend the ball in front of you. Swing it in a horizontal circle. Keep the ball 2.5 cm above the floor. Let go of the string. Observe the direction in which the ball rolls. Repeat several times, letting go of the string at different points. Make drawings of what you observe. |

Problem Solving ans., Attack of the Shower Curtain |
"This feature helps students...to tame the attacking shower curtain!" |
"This feature presents students with a real-life situation in which Bernoulli's principle plays a part. As the air in the shower compartment is heated by hot water, it rises and escapes over the top. Cool, dense air from outside the shower compartment comes in below. The resultant air billows the shower curtain. When the air temperature inside and outside the shower compartment equalizes, the curtain falls. Bernoulli's principle comes into play during the equalization process, since the pressure exerted on the curtain by the faster-moving hot air is less than that exerted on the curtain by the slower-moving air." |

Critical Thinking and Problem Solving #4 ans. |
"4. Increasing the surface area of the foil...surface tension." |
"4. "Crushing or folding the foil before placing it in the water will cause it to float due to trapped air. The weight of the volume of water displaced by the foil and the air trapped in it will be less than the weight of the crushed or folded foil and the air trapped in it, which will cause the foil to float. Increasing the surface area of the aluminum foil (e.g. flattening it out) when it is under water, in the absence of air, will help it float under water. Decreasing the surface area (e.g. crushing it into a ball) when it is underwater, in the absence of air, will help it sink." |
