Water Droplet A water droplet falls as a sphere because of surface tension. That same tension can keep it from breaking and even allow it to bounce off a miniscule layer of air. | Time Warp | 00:32 | May 26, 2009 | 100928 |

Oil and Water Oil and water don't mix because water's polar molecules don't adhere easily to oil's nonpolar molecules. Since oil is less dense than water, it rises to the top. | Time Warp | 01:01 | May 26, 2009 | 11019 |

Big Splashes Get a quick lesson in "Fluid Dynamics," the science that deals with how liquids and gases flow. High-speed cameras capture the dramatics of water in slow motion. | Time Warp | 01:35 | October 06, 2009 | 6257 |

Water Stream When a stream of water hits an obstacle, surface tension causes it to break into spheres of varying sizes. | Time Warp | 00:31 | May 27, 2009 | 4596 |

Water Rocket A rocket moves according to Newton's third law of motion: for every action there's a reaction. In this case, pressurized air pushes past water on its way out into the less compressed atmosphere. Pushing water in one direction makes the rocket mov ... | Time Warp | 00:19 | April 16, 2009 | 11625 |
