On Monday Kea conducted an Oobleck experiment . Oobleck is an non-newtonian fluid which means that it can mimic the substance of a solid if force is on it or a liquid if there is no force.it is made by mixing cornstarch water and food coloring together.
The explanation for the strange behavior of Oobleck lies in the shape of cornstarch particles, which are long and thin. When cornstarch mixes with water, the starch does not dissolve, but remains in suspension. Move the mixture slowly, and the particles slide past each other
