The paper clip is more dense than water but can rest on the surface of the water because of the water's surface tension. Evidence of water's surface tension can be seen where the water strider's legs ...

WHEN the available experimental values of the surface tensions of liquid metals are plotted against the reciprocals of the corresponding atomic volumes, the accompanying diagram is obtained.

Demonstrates basic principles of water, including surface tension, pressure, and buoyancy. It shows how water can hold more than its brim due to surface tension, how pressure increases with depth ...

Linda Hall has a new exhibition, Surface Tension, currently up at the Thomasville Center for the Arts, which includes her ...

Surface Tension in the Lungs Recent investigations have shown that the air spaces of the lung are coated with a complex substance that lowers surface tension. It now appears that this substance ...

Discover how surface tension keeps water molecules together and how soap can break this force. Watch as pepper flees from soap in water, demonstrating molecular interactions in an exciting way. Watch ...

Discover the amazing properties of water's surface tension as you make metal paper clips float on water. You'll learn about the forces that hold water molecules together and how insects like water ...
