Hello everyone so for this week tech lesson we cut out the pollen tube out of a Hibiscus flower. Thank you for looking at my blog bye!

Topic 4 - Floating and Sinking

 Floating or Sinking - Buoyancy Experiments:

Aim/purpose: Find out what is positively buoyant (can float) and negatively buoyant, (cannot float), and to predict what the outcome of one object will be.

Definitions:

Float - On the surface of liquid, (most of the time, water)

Sink - Can not float and object goes under the liquid.

Semi-float - Where something can float but half of it is in the liquid, (between floating and sinking).

How something floats: It has enough air and isn’t too heavy.

How something sinks: Where something doesn’t have enough air, is heavy and dense; Thus, the object sinks.

Buoyant - The term for something that can float.

Negatively buoyant: Term for something that can’t float.

Positively buoyant: Term for something that can float.

Recording our buoyancy testing

Predicting what the outcome may be and if our predictions are proven wrong or correct.

Name of object	Size - cms L-W-D or diameter	Weight : gms	Composition (what it’s made of)	Prediction Float or sink	Buoyancy result
Golf ball	12.7cm	45.76gms	Plastic stuffed with rubber	It won’t float. It seems a bit too heavy.	It didn’t float, (correct)!
Tennis ball	21.1cm	54.40gms	Hollow inside, fabric outside.	Semi float.	It semi -floated, (correct)!
Ping pong ball	12.4cm	2.29gms	Plastic, inside is hallow.	Float.	It floated, (correct)!
Small marble	5.7cm	5.33gms	Glass	Float	It didn’t float, it sinked, (incorrect)!
Big marble	9.4cm	20.43gms	Glass	Sink	It sinked, (correct)!
Big lego	3.7cm	8.33gms	Plastic	Float	Floats/semi-floated, (correct)!
Small block	1cm	0.50gms	Wood	Float	Float/semi-floated, (correct)!
Medium block	1.9cm	3.80gms	Wood	Semi-float	Semi-floated, (correct)!
Long block	10cm	19.41gms	Wood	Semi-float	Semi-floated, (correct)!

Wide block	14.1cm	116.43gms	Wood	Sink	Semi float, (incorrect)!
Styrofoam	3.2cm	0.15	Styrofoam	Float	Floats, (correct)!

Hello everyone this is what we did at tech last week, we put some objects into a bucket of water and we have to predict if it would float or sink. Thank you for looking at my blog bye! 

Papatoetoe Cyclone

About 1200 homes in Papatoetoe were wreaked, most with out power, while 60 houses are uninhabitable. More than 20 fire crews from across Auckland are helping with the cleanup. RNZ reporter Katie Doyle was at the fire service at Freyburg Avenue in Papatoetoe this morning, she said it was carnage (which means that there was a lot of chaos, mess, and more ) and saying that their was a lot of damage too. She said that branches came off trees and a whole tree unrooted, there was so power lines that were ripped off.    

Binpin Thakkar who lives on Hayworth Road, said his whole house shook, he said he could see roof tiles flying down his street, and there is broken glass from shattered windows everywhere. This all happened on Saturday the 19th of June 2021. Only one person got killed and his name was Janesh Prasad.

Hello everyone so this blog post is about the cyclone that hit Papatoetoe. I hope you enjoy looking at my blog. Thank you.

Hello everyone this is what I already learned about the four spheres. I hope you enjoy my blog post and remember to leave a positive comment. Thank you for looking at my blog.

Topic 3 - Trying out laboratory equipment

Hello everyone this is what we did at Tamaki Collage for Science. We used Lab equipment.   

 Aim or Purpose: 1. Measure an exact amount of sugar and dissolve in water to make a solution. 

 

1. Thermometer

2. Weighing Machine

3. Stop Watch

4. Spatula

5. Pipette  

 

Method: We placed a petri dish on the weighing machines or scales. We used a spatula to measure the sugar. We put the sugar into a 200ml beaker fulled with water and then timed it to see how long it would take. Then we did hot water. We did that until the the sugar dissolved. We used a thermometer to see the temp of the water. We used 10grams of sugar and 100ml of cold and hot water. 

 

Results:  Temp of cold water = 23

Temp of hot water = 80

Time taken by water to dissolve in cold water = 1.20

Time taken by water to dissolve in hot water = 16
