What is the world's largest (Non extinct) bird?

What is the ostrich?

200

A liquid, gas, or other material that may continuously move and deform (flow) under applied stress or an external force.

What is fluid?

200

Where is fluid pressure the greatest? Think about diving down in the ocean. At what point during your dive do you feel the most pressure?

What is the bottom of the container/ ocean/ the lowest point?

200

Explain why pressure on a diver increases as depth increases.

What is the total weight of the water on top of the diver increases with depth.

200
This principle states that the weight of displaced water equals the buoyant force of the water.
What is Archimedes' Principle?
200
This famous monster was created by a doctor.

What is Frankenstein?

300

This system operates through the idea that fluid is incompressible. This system can be used to lift larger objects with little force. 

What is a Hydraulics System?

300

What direction is fluid pushed?

What is ALL directions?

300
This the measure of how closely packed the particles in a substance are.
What is density?
300
An object will do this when its weight is less than the buoyant force.
What is Float?
300

What is the northern most state in the U.S?

What is Alaska?

400

The ability or tendency of an object to float in water or air or some other fluid.

What is Buoyancy?

400
This is the SI unit for force.
What is a Pascal?
400

As water speed increases, pressure_____________?

What is decreases?

400
If a log floating on the water is pushed underwater, it will pop back up because of this reason.
What is the buoyant force is greater than the log's weight?
400

What are the three primary colors?

What is red, yellow, blue?

500

This is caused by the gravitation force pushing down on earth. This environment causes you to lose oxygen the further up you climb a mountain.

What is Atmospheric Pressure?

500

In which direction does the buoyant force act?

What is up?

500

What does a Hydraulic system multiply (increase)?

What is the amount of force?

500
This principle states that as the speed of a moving fluid increases, the fluid's pressure decreases.
What is Bernoulli's Principle?
