In beaker A, you can see the oil and the water existing in separate layers. In beaker B, the beaker is shaken up, which disperses the oil in the water temporarily. When you set it back down again, however, (beaker C), you can see that it separates again. In beaker D, we added an emulsifier.
Why PI Was Created. PI was created to provide high school students a place where they can create their invention ideas. Too often, students conceive ideas that can change the world. Due to insufficient support and guidance, most high school students cannot bring their invention ideas to life.
What is pi, and how did it originate? Succinctly, pi--which is written as the Greek letter for p, or --is the ratio of the circumference of any circle to the diameter of that circle. Regardless of the circle's size, this ratio will always equal pi. In decimal form, the value of pi is approximately 3.14.
