Surface Tension Of Water Paper Clips at Savannah Buckmaster blog

Surface Tension Of Water Paper Clips. Watch how water behaves on the space station with this nasa video. This is called surface tension. Yes, absolutely you can float a paper clip on water. Surface tension and buoyancy work together to allow a paper clip to float on water. You know that as paperclips are made out of metal they're more dense than water, that's why they normally sink. The paperclip floating on the surface of water demonstrates to your children how the surface tension of water works. Paper clips are of steel material which defy the floating physical laws. Try filling a bowl half full with water and carefully placing a paperclip on the top, so it floats. Prep time 5 minutes mins active time 15 minutes mins Can paper clips float on water? A careful approach is essential to prevent the paper clip from breaking the water’s. How come this one is floating? That’s why the surface of the water bulged and formed a dome when you added the paper clips, which kept the water from spilling out. In this activity, your student can see how surface tension works and amaze everyone by floating a paper clip on the surface of the water! But surprisingly we can float steel paper clips on the water using surface tension created on top surface area of water.
