ALUMINUM BOAT CHALLENGE

HOW CAN ALUMINUM FLOAT?

• Because foil has a greater density than water, we had to use Archimedes principle to design our boat.
• Our hypothesis is that the boat will float if it displaces water equal to its weight before it submerges.
• Archimedes principle is that in order for an object to float it will have to displace its
• weight in water before it completely submerges.

WE HAD TO CHOSE SOME BOATS THAT WOULD HELP US BUILD OUR OWN BOAT
