The experiments broadly confirmed the theoretical calculations, and enabled Dutta to estimate the decanting times for liquids of varying viscosities. Water, for example, decanted to the 90% level in ...

If you’ve ever whacked the bottom of a ketchup bottle to get that tasty tomato goop flowing, you’ve put some serious physics to work. Ketchup is a non-Newtonian fluid. So are toothpaste, yogurt, ...

Scientific discovery doesn't always require a high-tech laboratory or a hefty budget. Many people have a first-rate lab right in their own homes—their kitchen. The kitchen offers plenty of ...

Create a colorful tower of liquids that stack on top of each other based on their densities. This experiment demonstrates how different liquids have different densities and why some liquids float ...
