Check out this video demo: So, that is just plain water. If I am careful, I can make that thin aluminum disk stay on the surface of the water. This is not the same as floating in Archimedes principle.

Demonstrates basic principles of water, including surface tension, pressure, and buoyancy. It shows how water can hold more than its brim due to surface tension, how pressure increases with depth, and ...

Jason Latimer from Impossible Science defies gravity with the surface tension of water. Jason Latimer from Impossible Science, together with Constance Zimmer and her daughter, shows how to defy ...

Geckos sprint across the surface of water using a combination of body motion and surface tension. The lizard’s technique was revealed by high-speed observations made by Jasmine Nirody at the ...

In its most basic form, surface tension is the tendency of liquids to bead up rather than spread out because they are more attracted to themselves (cohesion) than they are attracted to other things, ...

Kumamoto University researcher's new theoretical model considers the normal component of liquid surface tension in addition to the tangential component. This image may only be used in conjunction with ...
