Post for Week 5

Greetings Einsteins.

Check out ths photo and tell me why you think one can of soda (with the exact same volume) would descend and the other would ascend?  All hypotheses will receive a SAP.

I think that one would ascend while the other would descend because the two soda cans arer made of two different materials. The ascending one would go up because it is made up of materials that would float, while the descendig soda can is made up of materials that are more dense. Zach S. miss busters homeroom

I think the one ascending is made of a material that has the property of floatation,while the other can that is descending doesn`t have a property of floatation.

The volume is same but it is the density that is making the diet coke up and the coke down

I think that the Diet Coke floats because it has less carbs so it weighs less,and it's light enough to float.

one coke is diet so it floats because it has less calories and less density than a original coke.

Diet coke has less sugar and so I think that it weighs less,

I think one floats and one sinks because they are made of different materials so they have different amounts of density.

The coca cola can is more dense than the diet cocoa cola can is less dense . the one with more density sinks and the one with less density floats . example a ping pong ball floats a bouncie ball sinks. from chloe Farnan
