The behavior of the oobleck was depend on the force applied to it. if you
applied more amount of force to the oobleck it reacts or its characteristics as
more thicker and harder for example you punch or strongly stir it you feel that
its more harder and thicker it’s because the cornstarch particles get
mashed together, trapping water molecules between them,
and oobleck temporarily turns into a semi-solid material. but if you
slowly dip your hand in the oobleck it reacts a soft substances. The
oobleck and quicksand had similarities and differences .they similar
of their viscosity and their differences was the quicksand was the
more that you apply force the more that you sunk. while in oobleck
the more the force you applied you only trap the particles of
cornstarch and you wont sunk.
3 if something fell into the oobleck ,like a rock , it will sink immediate
?
it didn’t sink immediately. we know that the rock was a high density
object so the more it denser the more the force it can apply to the
oobleck. So the rock was need a long time to be fully sunk. and also
the density of rocks was affected how long it will sink. For ex. Rocks
A and Rock B. Rock A had a mass of 500 g and Rock B had a mass
of 750.so the rock A was first to sink because its less denser compare
to rock B
