Physics 8/8/2008: Taking Flight

August 8, 2008, 20:33
Filed under: Physics

Things I learned:

Gravity affects all things equally, regardless of mass.
Buoyancy force is exactly equal to gravity.
There are 14.7 – 15 pounds of pressure per each square inch of air.
Ice is 90% denser than water, that is why only a small percentage of an iceberg is visible.
It would be possible to fly with a board for a wing.
