Laboratory information

Experiment with buoyancy, the Principle of Archimedes, and similar physical laws. Take related measurements, conduct experiments, and start doing relatively advanced calculations to draw conclusions.

The experiments from the Advanced version of the Buoyancy laboratory will normally display more data (such as data from liquid level sensors and object weight sensors) and the proposed activities will involve numerical calculations of varying difficulty.

What students do

Operate real equipment and reason from the measurements.
