yes it can since it has a density of less than 1g/cm3
No, a block of ash wood will not float in methanol. Wood is denser than methanol, so it will sink in the liquid.
wood
Yes, a block of wood would typically float on top of water because wood is less dense than water. This means that the weight of the wood is less than the weight of the water it displaces, causing it to float.
The 1-kg block of wood will float on water, while the 1-kg block of aluminum will sink. This is because wood is less dense than water and has a greater buoyant force acting on it, causing it to float. Aluminum is denser than water and will sink when placed in water.
It may or may not float. It depends on whether the entire piece of wood is less dense than the water. Most wood is and will float on water. Very dense woods, such as ebony and cocobolo are more dense than water and will sink.
In most cases the wood will float (there are a few dense tropical woods that will not) and the metal will sink. things float because they displace more weight of water than their own volume if not they sink
Most wood (blocks) float because most wood is less dense than water. However, there are some hardwoods that are denser than water, a block made from one of these would sink.
No. It doesn't matter how heavy a block of wood is, it depends on the density of the wood. Generally wood floats as the density of wood is lighter than the density of the water, so it would float.
a block of ebony will sink in water because it's density is 1.2 g/cm3 and the water's density is 1g/cm3
if it was a cubick foot of water and the glass was the same and weighs less then the water than yes
It depends on the density of the block and the water. If the block's overall density is greater than the water, it will sink. However, if the block is less dense than water, it will float, regardless of the holes.
A wooden block will typically float in water because wood has a lower density than water, causing it to displace enough water to stay afloat.
