Re: question
Citim:
Po citoj ato që tha darke
why a mosquito doesn't sink in the water and can walk in its surface?
This is due to the surface tension of water, with a relatively high density. Also, mosquitoes are symmetrical; their body weight is equally distributed and supported by their legs (dont know the appropriate term). By the way, mosquitoes are not the only insects that are able to "walk on water".
I believe Da Vinci had a design of some sort of "floating shoes" to help human walk on water, but I'm not sure!
