Box A and Box B have the same weight. If you placed each box into a beaker of water which one will displace more water?

It depends on the volume of the box. The bigger the volume, the larger amount of water that will be displaced.

Why does iron ship floats in water?
Because the weight of the water that they displace is greater than the weight of the ship.
Which ship displaces more water 1 loaded with a cargo of corks which float or a empty one?
If you add any load on the ship, its weight will increase, and thus, it will displace more water.If you add any load on the ship, its weight will increase, and thus, it will displace more water.If you add any load on the ship, its weight will increase, and thus, it will displace more water.If you add any load on the ship, its weight will increase, and thus, it will displace more water.
Why do needle sinks in water but ship floats?
Whether something sinks when it's placed on water is determined by the amount (weight) of water that it displaces. The needle, being small in size and relatively high in mass (relative to its size), displaces very little water when it is placed on the surface. The weight of the needle will be more than the weight of the water that it displaces and the needle will sink. The ship, though many times heavier than the needle, will displace alot more water than the needle. The ship will float if the weight of the displaced water is more than the weight of the ship.
What happens to air pressure if a balloon with the same initial volume is placed in a beaker of cold water then placed in a beaker of hot water?
it would shrink in cold and expand in warm, if you really want to surprise your teacher say it has to do with particle theory
How does buoyancy and density relate to the world?
Any substance that does not dissolve when placed in water will displace a certain volume. The volume of water that is displaced has a certain weight and the equivalent of that weight of water creates a buoyant force on the object. If the density of the object is less than the density of water then the buoyant force will be enough to make the substance float.
A potato cube is placed in a beaker filled with hot salt water and another potato cube is placed in a beaker filled with cold salt water?
A patato cube is placed in a beaker filled with hot salt water and another patato cube is placed in a beaker filled with cold salt water?
Do objects placed in water displace the water?
Yes , most of the time
Why does iron ship floats in water?
Because the weight of the water that they displace is greater than the weight of the ship.
How much weight does your boat displace?
The Joke: Not much it sank The truth: A floating boat will displace the same weight in water that it weighs. So the real question is how much does it displace or how much does it weigh
What might happen to a heated beaker made from glass that does not contain boron if the beaker were placed in a pan of iced water?
The beaker has a high chance of shattering.
When objects float they displace an amount of water equal to their?
equal to their weight

After a salt cube is placed into a beaker of water what will happen?
beakers are not made of water, they are made of glass.

How do you measure weight and volume of water not quite filling a 50ml beaker?
It is necessary to know the mass of the empty beaker.
What instrument using for determination of concentration of salt water?
Measure out any volume of water in a pre-weighed beaker (or container...sigh*). Then bake the beaker in a warm oven until all the water evaporates and the beaker is dry. Reweigh the beaker . Subtract the original weight of the empty beaker from the new weight. You now have the weight of the salt present in your original amount of water ! NOTE: If you are using ocean water this may be imprecise due to other contaminants remaining in the beaker. AKA you are not JUST weighing salt at the end.

How much water does a large ship displace to float?
the weight of the ship is equal to the amount of water displaced
