About this item

Set of three metal rods with 1 cm engravings for demonstrating Archimedes' principle and buoyancy.

  • Diverse materials - Includes aluminum, brass, and stainless steel rods for comparative analysis of material densities

  • Engraved scales - Each rod features 1 cm divisions for precise measurement of submerged lengths and displaced volumes
  • Standard dimensions - Rods measure 1×1×11 cm, facilitating consistent experimental setups
  • Educational utility - Ideal for hands-on demonstrations of buoyant force and Archimedes' principle in physics education

The Archimedes sticks set offers educators and students a practical tool to explore the principles of buoyancy and fluid displacement. Comprising three rods made from aluminum, brass, and stainless steel, each rod is uniformly sized at 1×1×11 cm and features engraved 1 cm divisions on all sides, allowing for accurate measurement of submerged lengths.

This design enables clear observation of how different materials, each with distinct densities, interact with water when submerged. By measuring the buoyant force acting on each rod and correlating it with the volume of water displaced, learners can gain a tangible understanding of Archimedes' principle. This set serves as an engaging resource for physics classrooms, promoting interactive learning and deeper comprehension of fluid mechanics concepts.
