Description
In this lessons we studying Archimedes' principle. To do this, we'll be experimenting with the relationship between density, mass and volume of an object and the magnitude of the buoyant force.
The students organized in teams will use the principles of buoyancy to investigate how mass, gravity,
volume and density is related to the buoyant force of an solid object floating in liquids. They will perform lab activities which investigates the fundamental physics behind pressure in fluids, buoyancy forces, and Archimedes’ principle. The lessons plan is built on Inquiry-based learning, six thinking hats scenario.
