COLUMBIA, S.C. — In the theme of Easter this week, we’re going to do an experiment today in which we use eggs! We’re going to talk about density, which is an important concept in science and in ...
A hexagon-shaped plastic structure was used to generate waves that merged to form complex patterns on the water surface in a tank for an experiment co-led by Nanyang Technological University, ...
Host Lloyd Liedtke guides students through hands-on experiments exploring buoyancy, balance and force. Learn why some objects float while others sink, how paddle boats move, and how weight and volume ...
Researchers manipulated water waves to move ping pong balls with a level of precision that seems straight out of a sci-fi movie. Reading time 3 minutes Imagine hopping onto a large floatie in a lake ...
For this episode of “For Science!” we explore the concepts of solubility and density using the “floating fish” experiment. Because dry erase markers are created to not stick to surfaces, it is made ...
Scientists have developed water-repelling metal structures that will prevent ships from sinking even after damage.
In 2018, Arthur Ashkin won the Nobel Prize in Physics for inventing optical tweezers: laser beams that can be used to manipulate microscopic particles. While useful for many biological applications, ...
