How does a Boat Float?
Students will conduct an engineering activity where they design a tinfoil boat that floats. They should continue to redesign the boat to hold an increasing number of pennies. Students will better understand the forces of gravity and buoyancy. Students will see how Archimedes experimented with buoyancy and displacement.
