About this app

Buoyancy and Density is an interactive science learning app about why objects float or sink. Adjust an object's weight and volume to see its density compared with water, compare objects in oil, fresh water, and salt water, and test your understanding with a prediction game.

Use cases

  • Elementary students learning about density and buoyancy
  • Teachers demonstrating floating and sinking in class
  • Parents guiding children through a virtual science experiment
  • Learners practicing predictions about everyday objects

Features

  • Interactive weight and volume sliders
  • Live density readout compared with water at 1.00
  • Visual floating and sinking simulation
  • Comparisons using oil, fresh water, and salt water
  • Prediction game featuring wood, nails, foam, stone, apples, and coins
  • Stars and streak feedback for correct answers
