FORCES 7. Pressure and upthrust in liquids, why do objects float or sink? and variation of atmospheric pressure with height, uses of suction caps!

Doc Brown's GCSE level Physics exam study revision notes

Sub-index for this section on pressure and upthrust in liquids

7.1 Weight - upthrust - why objects float or sink in a fluid

7.2 Some 'kitchen sink' experiments on density!

7.3 Other cases of floating versus sinking in fluids (gases or liquids)

7.4 Atmospheric pressure and variation with height
