  2. Water pouring puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_pouring_puzzle

    Water pouring puzzles (also called water jug problems, decanting problems, [1] [2] measuring puzzles, or Die Hard with a Vengeance puzzles) are a class of puzzle involving a finite collection of water jugs of known integer capacities (in terms of a liquid measure such as liters or gallons). Initially each jug contains a known integer volume of ...

  3. Displacement (fluid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_(fluid)

    The increase in weight is equal to the amount of liquid displaced by the object, which is the same as the volume of the suspended object times the density of the liquid. [ 1 ] The concept of Archimedes' principle is that an object immersed in a fluid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. [ 2 ]

  4. Meniscus (liquid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meniscus_(liquid)

    When a tube of a narrow bore, often called a capillary tube, is dipped into a liquid and the liquid wets the tube (with zero contact angle), the liquid surface inside the tube forms a concave meniscus, which is a virtually spherical surface having the same radius, r, as the inside of the tube. The tube experiences a downward force of magnitude ...

  5. Archimedes' principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedes'_principle

    Once it fully sinks to the floor of the fluid or rises to the surface and settles, Archimedes principle can be applied alone. For a floating object, only the submerged volume displaces water. For a sunken object, the entire volume displaces water, and there will be an additional force of reaction from the solid floor.

  6. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    ρ ref is the known density (mass per unit volume) of the reference liquid (typically water). ρ new is the unknown density of the new (green) liquid. RD new/ref is the relative density of the new liquid with respect to the reference. V is the volume of reference liquid displaced, i.e. the red volume in the diagram. m is the mass of the entire ...

  7. Florence flask - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florence_flask

    A Florence flask/boiling flask is a type of flask used as an item of laboratory glassware and is named after the city Florence. [1] It is used as a container to hold liquids. A Florence flask has a round body, a long neck, and often a flat botto

  8. Swelling capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swelling_capacity

    In this method, 0.1 g of SAP material is placed into a permeable bag, which is suspended over excess water in a beaker. Wait 20 min. and weigh the bag and then calculate the percentage of swelling through the following formula: (w2-w1)/(w1) % w1= weight of the polymer (Before swelling) w2= weight of the polymer (After swelling)

  9. Round-bottom flask - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-bottom_flask

    Flat-bottomed flask: A flask with similar uses as the round-bottom flask, but with a flat bottom that allows it to stand on a level surface.; Florence flask: A flask similar to the flat-bottomed flask that has round bodies and either a round bottom or a flat bottom so that one can stand the flask on a level surface.
