What can sink in water?
heavy objects than water can sink in water
The density of water is equal to 10 gcm3 A substance with density equal to 09 gcm3 would in water?
float
How deep will a cubic foot weighing 10 pounds sink?
A object weighing 10 pounds with a volume of 1 cubic foot will sink until 0.16 of its volume is under water, and the remaining 0.84 of its volume is above the surface. At that point, the weight of the displaced water is (0.16 cubic foot) x (62.5 pounds/cubic foot) = 10 pounds, and the object will float at that depth, and sink no further.
Salt water being denser wants ti sink below the fresh water what would happen If you add less salt to the water what effect would this have?
deadly things
Is distilled water sink water?
no
Does things sink in water if they have higher or lower densities than water?
things that have higher density than water will sink as a needle but a hip doesnot.
At what density do things sink?
If density is greater than 1.0 then it will sink in water.
Do rocks sink in water?
Things sink in water when their density is greater than that of water. Water has a density of 1000 kg/m3, rock exceeds this by a significant amount. The principle at work is that things sink if they water tey displace weighs less than the mass of the object.
Is mass what makes things float or sink in water?
no!!
Why things sink into water any why not?
An object will sink if it has a greater density than water. In this case, the weight of the water displaced by the object is less than the weight of the object.
Why do the things sink in water?
When an object sinks in water it means it is less dense than the water itself.
How do you use the word sink in in a complex a sentence?
My friend says that the boat is about to sink.I know that heavy things sink into water.
Why do thing sink?
Why do brain work? Write a question that makes sense! ^lol
What property in water makes things sink or float?
Its density.If a substance is denser than water, it will sink. If it is less dense, then it will float.(The surface tension of water also contributes slightly to this.)
Why do some things sink fast and some things sink slowly?
denser things sink faster the denser it is then the faster it will sink
How come things sink and float?
Objects sink or float depending upon their densities. For example wood floats on water because the density of wood is less than that of water, while a piece of iron would sink in water as its density is more than water.
Example of things that sink in water?
Lead weight, a stone, the list is endless.
