About this document
Oobleck: Solid or Liquid Behavior? by Erin Pacala is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The oobleck behaves both like a solid and liquid depending on the force applied. It acts solid under sudden force and liquid under slow, steady force. The oobleck is considered a non-Newtonian fluid since its viscosity changes with stress. It contains starch particles suspended in water, allowing it to shift between states. A rock would initially sink upon falling into the oobleck but would be difficult to remove due to the oobleck
