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 ...

A team of international scientists co-led by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have discovered a way to manipulate water waves, allowing them to trap and precisely move ...

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 ...

Learn about household objects that sink and float in this easy-to-prepare activity. Learn about household objects that sink and float in this easy-to-prepare activity.

In a nutshell: Researchers from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore have demonstrated the ability to manipulate water waves, allowing them to precisely control objects floating on the ...

CLEVELAND — Maybe it’s the snow. Maybe it’s because it’s May. Maybe it’s the fact that I probably won’t see the ocean any time soon. But in any case, I was thinking about how much I love the smell of ...

What: Earlier this summer we learned about density. Density is the amount of mass in a given volume, or amount of space. Mass is dependent on the number of molecules in an object. Objects that are ...

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, ...
