how?
  1. Fill the bowl with water. Gently place a small paperclip on the surface of the water. Can you get it to float?
  2. If not, try using another paperclip to design a tool to help you so you don't have to use your fingers.
  3. How much can the water support? Try a larger paperclip or coin!

Try the experiment, tell us what happens and watch DFTV for your results! What's the heaviest object you could float?
