7. Drawing pins
A drawing pin (thumbtack) floating on the
surface of water near another floating object
is subject to an attractive force. Investigate
and explain the phenomenon.
Is it possible to achieve a repulsive force by
a similar mechanism?

2. Attraction of
pins
14
Why are they attracting?
2 pins on water –
inclined to each
other
G  FB
Mass of a pin > mass of water
displaced
Potential energy of water and
pin – decreases as pin
descends

Repulsive force

 FST acts downwards

Repelling objects
Plastic caps from pins
– float upwards
Behavior depends on weight
There is a critical mass – does not repel or attract

Conclusion
We explained the mechanism of
‒ floating, attraction, repulsion
Determined the deformation of water
surface
Described the motion quantitatively
‒ theory correlates with experiments
Found the border between
attraction/repulsion
