UMS-Wright Physics Students Sail Across Lubel Pool

To complete their unit on Fluid Mechanics, Mrs. Cullen’s Honors Physics classes had to design and construct a boat that would float 2 students from one side of Lubel Pool to the other. The catch...they could only use cardboard boxes and duct tape. Using their knowledge of buoyancy and Archimedes’ Principle, they were able to be successful with their design. It was a lot of fun for the students as well as the spectators, and a great engaging experience to see the reallife application of Physics!
