Objective: Determine how different conditions affect the flow of ice (flubber)Materials:
Make the Flubber
Experiment!
For variations on the experiment, you can try changing the angle of the PVC pipe to make it steeper or shallower. You can also put sandpaper or cooking oil on the "valley" to increase or decrease friction. Which flubber flowed faster: hot, cold, or room temperature? Why do you think that is? How do you think using sandpaper or oil would change the way the flubber flowed? |
