I love snow globes.
Have you ever wondered what makes the glittery stuff inside the globe drift down slowly? It really does look like falling snow?
1.One factor is the viscosity (thickness) of the liquid.
Viscosity is a fancy scientific name for describing the resistance of a fluid (gas or liquid) to flow. It could be described as fluid friction, which is a resistance to motion.
2. Another factor is the buoyancy of the floating “snow.”
Buoyancy is the upward force of a fluid that keeps things afloat in it.
