Question

scenario: if this experiment were to be performed on the international space station (iss), where there is no gravity, how would that affect the difficulty of shaking, flicking, and holding the bottles? hint? question: at least one of the actions will change based on the location and at least one action will not change based on location. explain why an action would change difficulty based on location and why an action wouldnt. hint?

Explanation:

Shaking and flicking involve moving the bottles against inertia and fluid - dynamics within the bottles. In zero - gravity on the ISS, the lack of gravitational pull changes the fluid behavior and the way forces are applied to move the bottles, making these actions harder. Holding the bottles mainly involves static contact and friction between the hand and the bottle, which is not directly affected by the absence of gravity, so there is no change.

Answer:

For shaking: Harder. For flicking: Harder. For holding: No Change.
