This is just a mixture of corn starch and water. The sound is horrible because my digital camera cannot pick up that kind of volume (the music was incredibly...
Fake Blood: a fun, calm science experiment Video Clips. Duration : 4.53 Mins.
Learn how to make fake blood just in time for Halloween! Amanda, from the Saint Louis Science Center, will show you how to whip up some creepy kitchen chemistry.
Check out this and other cool science experiments at www.stevespanglerscience.com This is a three part video segment showing you everything you need to know when it comes to making the perfect batch of cornstarch and water goo. Mix cornstarch and water in this classic experiment to form a gooey liquid and solid material that behaves like quicksand. Some people refer to this as the Oobleck recipe, others call it a Non-Newtonian fluid. After watching these video segments, you'll call it a great science lesson as your students learn about the amazing properties of this cornstarch and water mixture. And yes... Steve shows you how to perform the "Cornstarch Walk on Water" on a much smaller scale - using only 100 boxes of cornstarch in a small pool - instead of the 2500 pounds he used on the Ellen Show.

I will be playing with different frequencies, amplitudes and substances...very, very cool stuff. Non-Newtonian Liquid: --- Wikipedia --- A non-Newtonian fluid is a fluid whose flow properties are not described by a single constant value of viscosity. Many polymer solutions and molten polymers are non-Newtonian fluids, as are many commonly found substances such as ketchup, starch suspensions, paint, blood and shampoo. In a Newtonian fluid, the relation between the shear stress and the strain rate is linear (and if one were to plot this relationship, it would pass through the origin), the constant of proportionality being the coefficient of viscosity. In a non-Newtonian fluid, the relation between the shear stress and the strain rate is nonlinear, and can even be time-dependent. Therefore a constant coefficient of viscosity cannot be defined. Although the concept of viscosity is commonly used to characterize a material, it can be inadequate to describe the mechanical behavior of a substance, particularly non-Newtonian fluids. They are best studied through several other rheological properties which relate the relations between the stress and strain rate tensors under many different flow conditions, such as oscillatory shear, or extensional flow which are measured using different devices or rheometers. The properties are better studied using tensor-valued constitutive equations, which are common in the field of continuum mechanics.
