The answer is no, because a Cartesian diver requires an air pocket that can be compressed. By compressing this air pocket the air molecules get closer together and change the density of the vessel that they are in. This causes it to sink. candles do not have air pockets, so there would be nothing to compress.

When was the newt suit invented?
This special underwater suit was made in the 1970's. The Newt Suit is built to withstand the pressure of deep water. Developed by Vancouver diver Phil Nuytten, it looks like something an astronaut would wear underwater. Two electric thrusters are attached to the suit, to move the diver forward. The suit is very heavy out of the water, but nearly weightless underwater. A person wearing the suit can work at 305 m below the surface for up to 8 hours.
Is the moon pool magical?
No, a moon pool is not magical. It is a feature frequently found on marine drilling platforms, used to access the water below the surface for various purposes such as equipment deployment or diver access.
What would happen if you take off your air helmet in outer space?
Oh, dude, if you take off your air helmet in outer space, you'll experience a sudden drop in pressure causing the air in your lungs to expand and escape, leading to a rapid loss of consciousness within seconds due to lack of oxygen. Eventually, your body would freeze solid in the vacuum of space. But hey, at least you'd have a killer view while it lasts, right?
How do astronauts produce oxygen in space?
The oxygen in a spacecraft is recycled through a chemical process that removes the carbon from the carbon dioxide we breathe out. Very much the same as the underwater "re-breather" that allows a scuba diver to stay underwater for hours without carrying massive air tanks. A more difficult situation would be if the air were somehow lost to space. That would be harder. But if the air leak could be patched, they could boil the water on-board to replace much of the air. While there would be an imbalance of lack of nitrogen, and an excess of hydrogen, the only ill effects would be that they will talk funny until they can return home. It is also possible that they could use some of the oxygen that is used for the engines, but having too much oxygen content can cause other problems. The air we normally breathe is only about 20% oxygen.
Does Mars have an atmosphere if it does what is it like?
mars is called the red planet because it has a slightly reddish tinge when you see it in the sky. the atmosphere of Mars is mostly carbon dioxide and has only 1 percent the pressure of Earth's atmosphere. You could walk around on Mars but you would have to wear an airtight suit and carry your own air, like a scuba diver. Mars has clouds but they are very thin compared to the clouds on earth. from the natural explorer text book
How does the density of the air change in the Cartesian Diver experiment?
As the "diver" descends, air density inside the diver's capsule increases as it is compressed.
Why do free-divers sink at depth?
The cartesian diver sinks because the diver wants to get to a place of low pressure
What is a Cartesian Diver most known for?
The Cartesian Diver is actually a scientific experiment. It helps divers determine what amount of air is needed for descent and ascent so that neither is done too quickly which can cause death.
Why are Cartesian Diver called Cartesian divers?
Cartesian divers are named after French philosopher and scientist René Descartes. The divers demonstrate principles of buoyancy and pressure in fluid mechanics that Descartes contributed to understanding. The diver's movement within the fluid is a visual representation of these principles.
A Cartesian diver made from a plastic bottle filled with water and an inverted test tube partially filled with water What causes the diver to sink as the bottle is squeezed?
"The volume of air in the diver decreases."
Why does the air behave in this way in cartesian diver?
In a Cartesian diver, the air behaves as it does due to the principles of buoyancy and pressure. When the container is squeezed, the water pressure increases, compressing the air inside the diver. This increased pressure reduces the volume of air, making the diver denser than the surrounding water, causing it to sink. Releasing the pressure allows the air to expand, decreasing the diver's density, and making it buoyant again, allowing it to rise.
How does pascals principle help explain the behavior of the cartesian diver?
Pascal's principle states that a change in pressure at any point in an enclosed fluid is transmitted undiminished to all points in the fluid. This principle helps explain the behavior of the Cartesian diver, as the change in pressure when the diver is squeezed causes the enclosed air to compress and the diver to sink, and when pressure is released, the compressed air expands, causing the diver to rise.
How does pascal principle help explain the behavior of the cartesian diver?
Pascal's principle states that a change in pressure at any point in an enclosed fluid is transmitted equally to all points in the fluid. In the case of a Cartesian diver, when you apply pressure to the container, the pressure is transmitted to the fluid inside, causing the diver to compress and sink. When you release the pressure, the diver expands and rises due to the equal distribution of pressure in the fluid, demonstrating Pascal's principle in action.
The picture shows a Cartesian diver made from a plastic bottle filled with water and an inverted test tube partially filled with water. What causes the diver to sink as the bottle is squeezed?
The volume of air in the driver decrease.
Who is the french mathematician that invented Cartesian coordinate plane?
Rene Descartes, the surname means ( some charts or some maps) Descartes theorized than any equation can be expressed in graphical form, form follows family names! Descartes and the Cartesian idea became associated with the Cartesian diver, a toy deep-see diver that rises and falls owing to buoyancy and openings in the diver figure. It is probable this came along long after the death of M Descartes, but was bestowed in an honorary fashion- as were many of the (Inventions) of Leonardo Da Vinc i and closer to home, Franklin.
What is a Cartesian Diver and how does it work?
A Cartesian Diver is a simple experiment using a small object, like an eyedropper, partially filled with water and placed in a bottle filled with water. By compressing the bottle, the pressure increases, causing the object to sink. Releasing the pressure causes the object to float back up due to the change in buoyancy. This demonstrates the relationship between pressure, volume, and density.
How does pascal's principle help explain the behavior of the cartesians diver?
Pascal's principle states that when pressure is applied to a confined fluid, it is transmitted equally in all directions. In the Cartesian diver toy, squeezing the bottle increases the pressure inside, causing the diver to sink as the higher pressure compresses the air in the diver. Releasing the pressure allows the air to expand, making the diver float back to the surface.
