Pressure, density and Archimedes principle floating, sinking and swimming

An investigation of how water's own weight is responsible for buoyancy and an examination of the concept of pressure. A "Cartesian diver" shows why there is no stable state between floating and sinking, except on a density layer. The program concludes with some explanations of the physics of beaches.
