Veritasium: Buoyancy Answer |
|
In July 2021, YouTube set all unlisted videos uploaded before 2017 to private (unless the channel owner had opted out). In the weeks leading up to this change, Archive Team archived many pre-2017 unlisted YouTube videos. If this video was uploaded before 2017 and has gone private, there is a chance that a 360p archived version can be viewed on archive.org via the site's Wayback Machine as follows: 1. Enter the YouTube URL in the Wayback Machine form or click on the following link: https://web.archive.org/web/20210000000000*/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTnkoIWZZPI 2. Right-click on a blue entry in July in the calendar. 3. Click 'Copy link address'. 4. Paste the copied link address into your web browser's address bar and press enter.
Description: An unlisted answer video to a listed question video, from Veritasium, a science and engineering web show with over 2 million YouTube subscribers. Here is the original Buoyancy Quiz video that this video refers to. In the original video it is shown that a golf ball is denser than detergent (it also happens to be denser than pure water). A golf ball however is less dense than a saturated salt solution (in the video, the golf ball floats but with most of it below the surface). Question: If you pour the detergent on top of the golf ball in the salt solution, what will happen to the golf ball? Will it stay, go down, or go up?
