Weight in air and water, image 1 of 2
Weight in air and water, image 1 of 2. This mass is hanging from a newtonmeter, which shows that it has a weight of 5.5 newtons (equivalent to a mass of 0.56 kilograms). For the same mass in water, showing the reduction in weight due to the upthrust of water, see image A350/193

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Weight in air and water, image 1 of 2" offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of scientific exploration. In this image, we witness an intriguing demonstration conducted within the walls of a school laboratory. A mass is suspended from a newtonmeter, which meticulously measures its weight as 5.5 newtons or approximately 0.56 kilograms. The significance of this experiment lies in its ability to showcase the impact of different mediums on an object's weight. As we delve deeper into the realm of physics, we discover that when this same mass is submerged in water, it experiences a reduction in weight due to the remarkable force known as upthrust or buoyancy. While this particular photograph solely captures one part of the experiment – showcasing how objects behave differently when immersed in liquid – there exists another complementary image (A350/193) that illustrates precisely how much weight is lost under such circumstances. Through these visual representations and hands-on demonstrations like these, students are able to grasp complex concepts surrounding physical effects and understand fundamental principles governing our universe. This educational experience fosters curiosity and nurtures young minds towards further scientific inquiry. With Science Photo Library's dedication to capturing such moments with precision and clarity, they continue to inspire both educators and learners alike by bringing science out from textbooks and into vibrant reality.
