Understanding Matter and Non-Newtonian Fluids

The video explores the concept of matter, its states, and introduces non-Newtonian fluids. It explains how some materials can behave like multiple states of matter, focusing on non-Newtonian fluids like oobleck. The video includes a demonstration of making oobleck and explains the concept of viscosity, highlighting how non-Newtonian fluids change their flow rate under pressure.

What are the three common states of matter?

• Solid, Liquid, Plasma

• Solid, Gas, Plasma

• Solid, Liquid, Gas

• Liquid, Gas, Plasma

Which state of matter has a definite size but no definite shape?

• Liquid

• Plasma

• Gas

• Solid

What is a non-Newtonian fluid?

• A fluid that changes its flow rate under pressure

• A fluid that behaves like a gas

• A fluid that behaves like a solid

• A fluid that has a constant flow rate

What is the main ingredient needed to make oobleck?

• Cornstarch

• Baking soda

• Sugar

• Flour

What is the name of the book where the term 'oobleck' originated?

• Green Eggs and Ham

• Bartholomew and the Oobleck

• Horton Hears a Who

• The Cat in the Hat

What happens to oobleck when pressure is applied?

• It behaves like a solid

• It remains a liquid

• It evaporates

• It becomes a gas

What property describes the rate at which a fluid flows?

• Viscosity

• Elasticity

• Density

• Conductivity

How do non-Newtonian fluids differ from Newtonian fluids?

• They are always liquid

• They have a constant flow rate

• Their flow rate changes with pressure

• They are always solid

What is the behavior of oobleck when pressure is removed?

• It evaporates

• It becomes a solid

• It behaves like a gas

• It flows like a liquid

What is the term for fluids that do not follow the regular rules of matter?

• Non-Newtonian fluids

• Newtonian fluids

• Plasma fluids

• Solid fluids
