A girl weighing 600N is about 60kg, and a human body is covered in about 70 -80% water, hence the water displacement of that girl in order to float would be 75/100* 60 = 45L of water.

How much water must a ship displace in order to float?

An amount that weighs as much as the ship does.


What needs to be equal in order for an object to float in water?

For an object to float in water, it must displace the amount water equal to its own weight according to Archimedes.


Why must water be displaced in order for a system to float?

A system (object) to float in water must displace enough water that equals (or exceeds) the mass of the system/object.


What happened when mass disappears?

On an electronic weighing scale or just any weighing scale. Place an object (may be an eraser). In order for the mass to disappear, the weight should come to zero. Remove the eraser form the weighing scale. From this experiment you can see that for there to be no mass there is to be no object too. If you're also talking about the mass of air, then there would be no gravitational force between the two objects.


How can an object Float in Fluid Y which has a specific density greater than water and yet sink in Fluid X which has a specific density less than water?

There is nothing strange about the fact that a given object can float in a denser substance and sink in a substance which is less dense. Objects float when the amount of liquid that they displace weighs as much as the object. So the denser the liquid, the less liquid has to be displaced in order for an object to float. If an object is fully submersed and still cannot displace enough liquid to equal its own weight, then it sinks. This will happen any time an object is in a liquid which is less dense than the object. If the liquid is more dense than the object, the object can float in it. Also note that the density of an object includes any air which the object contains. Hollow objects become less dense. Boats float even when they are built of dense materials, because their shape allows them to include a lot of air when they are displacing water. But if the boat leaks, water can fill the space that is supposed to be filled with air, and then the boat sinks. It is very logical.

What does density have to do with the ability to float?

Using water is an example, anything that is less dense than water will float on water. Anything that is denser than water will sink in water.

What is the weight of water displaced by a massless balloon?

No real object is massless. Even a balloon has the mass of the balloon plus the mass of the entrained gas.But if the buoyancy of the entrained gas (hydrogen, helium) allows the balloon to float away, then it will displace no water. Even so, it still has mass.

Why are ships built to displace more water than necessary for them to float?

-- In order to be able to load the ship with revenue-producing cargo without sinking it -- In order to avoid sinking it if an obese passenger or crew member comes aboard, or a large fish is caught and stowed. -- In order to have it ride high in the water so that heavy seas do not wash over the deck.


Does egg always float in salt water?

An egg will float in salt water depending on the amount of salt found in the water because this increases the density of the solution. The density of salt water should always be higher than the density of the egg in order for it to float.
