Oobleck project

Post by Cynser3 »

I have 4 questions that I need an expert to answer PLEASE!!! for my project paper. :D :?:

1} Why does oobleck react to the speed of force in different ways?
2} Can you make oobleck with other liquids?
3} Why does cornstarch and water make a quicksand like substance?
4} Why does cornstarch and water act like a liquid when a small item hits it at a high speed and acts like a solid with a larger object at the same speed?

These questions need to be answered through research.

If you have specific questions after doing your research, Experts may be able to assist, but it is important that you do your background reading and research.

You might find the information on the background tab (and bibliography section) of this project helpful: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... p014.shtml
