Study Notes

Density and Buoyancy

Density refers to how close together the molecules of an object are.
Objects less dense than water will float, while objects more dense than water will sink.

Boats and Sails

Parker, the park manager, wants to find a way to make four boats move across the water.
Teresa suggests using materials to make sails.
A possible solution to make the boats move is to create "wind".

Gears

Gears are rotating parts of a machine with teeth that can interlock with another gear.
The direction of gear rotation depends on the interlocking gears.
When a large gear interlocks with a small gear, the small gear will turn faster.
When two gears of the same size interlock, they will turn at the same speed.

Gate Mechanism

A double gate can be created to open from both the left and right sides.
This is achieved by interlocking gears to facilitate the simultaneous opening of both sides.
