Our curious scientists enjoyed wetting their hands, doing the surface tension experiment! They found great joy in dropping things into the water to see whether they would remain on the top or go down to the bottom! Coins, erasers, and more took a dip in beakers, some defying gravity and floating while others sank to the bottom. The experiment unveiled the hidden force of surface tension, explaining why objects bob and float or take a dive and sink!
