About This Lesson
Overview: Determine the relationship between density and buoyancy. Will it float or sink?
Learning Targets
Students can:
- Use a digital simulation to collect science data.
- Use displacement to determine the volume of an object.
- Calculate density.
- Draw molecule diagrams to model the density of solids and liquids.
- Predict if a material will float or sink given the density of the material and the density of the fluid.
- Compare the density of the gas inside the balloon used in the movie The Aeronauts with the density of the gas in our atmosphere.
