The Recycling Factory

Dear Mr. Smith
You must separate the materials in order for you to dump the recycled. First, you get a powerful magnet to pick up the steel can. Then you dump all of the materials to the other large tank of water. The density of the water was is 1.0g/cm cubed. When you drop the materials, the milk jugs will float since the densities of the milk jugs  are under 1.0g/cm cubed. The milk jug's density is 0.95g/cm cubed. After that, you pour the suger water to the water making the density of 1.5g/cm cubed. The soda bottles density is 1.4 g/cm cubed. So that will make the soda bottles float on the sugar water. Since the aluminum soda can's density is 2.7g/cm cubed, it will sink down in the water because the concentrated sugar water's density is 1.5g/cm cubed. It will sink because the density of the aluminum soda cans's density is greater than the concentrated sugar water. So the nets willl pick up the aluminum soda cans. This experiment will work to solve the solution of separating the recycling materials.
