Density & Floating

Tip a bottle and watch a wave travel from one end to the other. Now ask yourself where the water went. Not the wave — the actual water. It's a question most people have never thought to ask. And the tiny duck floating inside has the answer.

So why does one sink and the other float?

Pick up an orange. Feel how solid and heavy it is. Now think about what happens when you drop something heavy into water. Make your prediction — and then peel it. Because something changes.

Two glasses of water. Same size. Same temperature. Same colour. Same everything — or so it seems. Your job is to catch the imposter.

Think all soft drinks are the same?
One of these cans will sink like a rock…
and the other will float like magic!
