Buoyancy in water on the magnetic board (Archimedes' prin-ciple)

Product No: P1297260

Principle

Extensive bodies have the property of weighing less when they are in water than when they are in air, which you notice when you swim, for example. For this reason, even heavy container ships can swim, although a small pebble immediately sinks. In this experiment, weare dealing with Archimedes' principle and hydrostatic pressure to determine whether a body will sink or swim.
