Bill Nye - Buoyancy

The reason things float or sink is because water is

• heavy

• very light like a feather

• a liquid

Displacement is when....

• Dolphins sing

• the water moves

• Whales show up

What affects the way an object floats?

• The material

• The color of the object

• The shape of the object

Neutral buoyancy is when....

• you don't sink or float

• you float

• you sink

The amount of water that is displaced by an object depends on this

• The color of the object

• The weight of the object

• The weather
