Regrann from @physicsfun - Poly-acrylamide Polymer Vanishing Act: these spheres of hydrophilic polymer have an almost identical index of refraction as that of water- thus when submersed they become invisible. Note the elasticity of these spheres from the way they bounce, while at the same time they refract their surroundings as a spherical lens. The super absorbent spheres start as hard crystals with a radius of 2mm and grow to 11mm when immersed in water. So much physics going on here! ➡️ Follow the link in my profile for info on where to get these and other amazing items featured here on @physicsfun #indexofrefraction #refraction #physics #physicstoy #hydrophilic #watergel #watergelcrystals #polyacrylamide #optics #invisible #invisibility #science #scienceisawesome #regrann
