Learning from home! Water surface tension!Practice # 2

Hello friends of my beloved community @hive, in these difficult times that we all have had to go through during this quarantine, I decided to retake this world of platforms and cryptocurrencies, I realized at this moment at home that all parents should take advantage of the extra time that we went through with our children, so I decided to implement a series of strategies that help me educate my children from home and I want to share with you this experience so that you can implement it and put it into practice with your children, but the most important thing of all is have fun and learn at the same time.

Today we will learn from home what the Surface Tension of Water is!

Concept:

The surface of any liquid behaves as if a tension membrane exists above it. This phenomenon is known as surface tension. The surface tension of a liquid is associated with the amount of energy required to increase its surface per unit area.Source

It is very important that before we get to practice we let our children know the conceptualization of what we are going to learn so that once we get to it they can fully understand the object of study.

Now if we are going to learn from home with this fun practice !!

What do we need?

  • A glass or a glass goblet
  • Colored water (optional)
  • Multiple currencies (about 30)

What do we have to do?

  • The first thing we have to do is fill our glass with water to the maximum, we must even fill it until it spills a little and then we are going to spill to know that we have reached the filling limit.

  • Next we proceed to introduce in the cup coin after coin that shows that the amount of coins the cup can hold before the surface tension of the water breaks and begins to drop.

We were amazed that our glass held about 16 coins before it started to spill!

What happened?

The surface tension is the force of attraction that exists between the water molecules, when filling the glass to the limit what prevents it from spilling is the surface tension, when placing a certain amount of coins they are occupying a space inside the glass and forcing the force of attraction of water molecules, a glass can support up to 30 coins depending on the size of the same before the force breaks.

The education of our children is the basis of who they will become in the future and this is why we as parents have the responsibility to provide them with the best possible education and we must bear in mind that education begins at home, so that we take advantage of this extra time that we spend with them in this quarantine and try to teach them from home and in a simple way basic concepts of physics, chemistry or any branch where you develop.

I invite you to follow me, if you like my publication so that between us we can make our children Learn from hom.

Greetings and I wait for you in my next publication.
