These People Are Walking On Water

The substance is a mix of water and cornstarch. The mixture is two parts cornstarch to one part water. It demonstrates the properties of non-Newtonian fluids. Non-Newtonian fluids are solid if you apply a sudden force. and liquid if you apply a steady, slow force.

How can something be a solid and a liquid?

In the mix, there are tiny cornstarch particles evenly distributed.

When a steady, slow force is applied... the particles have time to move. So the object slides through, as it would in a liquid.

When a sudden force is applied... the particles don't have time to move out of the way. So the object stops, as it would on a solid surface.

What makes non-Newtonian fluids unique is viscosity.

Viscosity is the rate at which fluid flows. Common fluids, like water, have a consistent viscosity.

So they flow the same regardless of what force you apply.

In non-Newtonian fluids, viscosity can change.

Apply a sudden force, and the viscosity rapidly increases, forming a semisolid surface.

What can you do on a non-Newtonian fluid pool?

Jump. Bike. Flip.

Whatever you do, just keep applying high force.
Or you'll sink right in.

PEOPLE FROM THIS VIDEO:can walk in water


Jesus: *Am i a JokE tO yOU*

[danii]

Imagine how terrible it would be to drown in there? If you try to swim up to the surface you would be hardened due to the sudden movements of your hand. You would be forced to slowly sink and no one could see you, or save you.

*Well that's a waste of corn starch*

[vbnnbvcx]

oh boy, I've always wanted to walk on the water. This is really going to turn my life around. Before, I was dull and boring person, but now since I've bought cornstarch fluid, I can finally live the exciting and fulfilling life I've always dreamed of!

These people can WALK ON WATER!!




The only problem is its not water.
It's oobleck

[__-xhuw]

Legend has it that this is there in a
*"Depression relief camp"*

[harrybennett]

Well obviously, look at how thick it is. I'll be impressed if you could walk on a substance as thin as water

[yabishblacky]

The next step of being naruto

Damn so many likes thanks guys

*You mean walk on slime?* * aMeRica ExPLain!*

[sophiahildreth]

Wow ooblek I’ve never seen that before
-coughs from a distance-

[kelliewalsh]

That's Not Water. IT'S OBVIOUSLY OOBLECK!

[alvarodm]

I can walk on water too, bring me ice and I’ll do it, no one said in which state the water had to be so...

[mmrainsgamez]

I Walked On A Cucumber





I Am 90% JESUS
