Since the body’s demand for oxygen increases as physical exertion increases, a university athletic coach thought that giving her athletes this oxygenated water would result in better performances. To test this idea, the coach divided her runners up into two groups. During practice, one group was given the super charged, oxygenated water to drink. The other group was given regular water. Both groups completed the same workout and drank the same amount of water (either oxygenated or unoxygenated). At the end of practice, she had all the athletes run 400 meters as fast as they could. She compared the times of the runners who had consumed regular water to those who had consumed the oxygenated water during practice. The coach found that the average time of the oxygenated water drinkers was significantly faster than that of the runners who had consumed regular water during practice.

- One of the riskier forms of rock climbing is called Deep Water Soloing. Climbers have no rope, and if they fall they land in deep water for "safety". Climbers practicing Deep Water Soloing report that it's more painful to land in very calm water (such as on a lake) compared to landing in very rough water (such as the ocean). Why? Waves break up the forces of cohesion in rough water These people are insane Waves break up the forces of adhesion in rough water The forces of cohesion are higher in rough water compared to calm waterarrow_forwardA recent newspaper article described a new bottled water that is “super charged” with oxygen.
