Section B experiments: To demonstrate atmospheric pressure To demonstrate Archimedes’ principle
Formulae: Density: ρ = m
Laws: Law of flotation Boyle’s law
Archimedes’ principle
STS: effects of pressure on weather; pressure of fluids on divers (bends) and dam construction; hydrometers used in liquid purity and density; effects of pressure in gases and fluids; flotation conditions
Scientists: Pascal, Boyle, Archimedes 56 BOOK TITLE FUSION
