Online Science Activity

Introduction to Online science activity:

This article will provide you some important and easy to perform activities that you can do at your home. These activities will increase your scientific knowledge. Apart from this, learning these wold be fun. Also, learning online is a fun for many students. Let us see some of the important science activities:

Activity I:

How to make a screw.

Procedure: Take a triangular piece of paper. Colour its inclined edge. Now wrap the paper around a pencil. The inclined edge now looks like the thread of a screw.

Principle: The screw jack you use to lift a car works on the principle of a screw. When you turn the handle, the screw of the jack turns around and lift the car. The handle on which the effort is applied, moves  a much larger distance than the car. But the screw jack lifts a large load.

Online science Activity (Activity II):


Solubility Experiment

Perform the following activity to learn about solubility.

1. Take some cold water in three glasses.

Add some salt in the first glass, sugar in the second and baking soda in the third.

Observation: You will find that:

(i) alt dissolved completely while sugar dissolves partially.

(ii) Baking soda dissolves partially and the solution is fizzy.

2. Take some warm water in three glasses. again add salt, sugar , baking soda.

Observation: You will observe that:

(i) Salt dissolves completely.

(ii) Sugar dissolves completely.

(iii) Baking soda dissolves completely and the solution is fizzy.

Understanding formula for pressure is always challenging for me but thanks to all science help websites to help me out.

Online science Activity (Activity III):


To understand how increase in weight makes an object sink.

Procedure: Take a piece of thermocol. Put it in a bowl containing water.

Observation: Thermocol as you know is very light and thus floats easily.

Now, place some coins or weights one by one until it sinks. Find out how much weight was required to balance the upthrust and sink the thermocol piece.
