Why is it inaccurate to say that all heavy objects will sink in water?
because if the heavy objects have a round bottom they will float
What does buoyanay mean?
this is the concept that explains why some objects float on water while others sink. it all deals with density.
Why do some objects float when placed in a container filled with a liquid while other sink?
It all depends on the density of the object. If an object was less dense than water, then it will float. If an object is more dense than water, then it will sink.
Give some exampleof materials that sink and float in water?
rocks metal eggs dirt or sand all sink some woods sponge plastic aluminum cans all float
Does calcium float or sink?
Both. It all depends in what liquid you place it.
Do all objects float?
No, some sink.
Do all objects float or sink?
yes

Does a rubber band float?
Yes and no. Rubber bands can float and sink in water. They will float on the water for awhile and then will sink. But not all the time the rubber bands will float on the water for awhile. Sometimes it will immediately sink.
Do all rocks sink?
It depends on the type of rock. A rock like sandstone would not sink if it is a small peice. Small rocks can float. That's when its called silt.
Does volume determine whether an object floats or sinks?
Not at all. A small pebble and a giant boulder both sink, but a small feather and a giant battleship both float.
What do objects that float all have in common?
Objects that are less dense than the environment in which they are immersed will float, unless they are tethered.

Does an object in water sink or float?
It is because some things have air in them. A sponge has air in it so it would float. a pair of socks would soon soak up all of the water and sink. __________ It really is complicated. Some objects float mainly because of their shape; you could float a glass bowl on water if it has a stable enough shape, but a sphere of glass with the same mass as the bowl would obviously sink. Many of the materials in an ocean liner would sink, including the materials that make up the hull and basic inner structure, if they were formed into spheres. But not all substances would sink even if formed into solid spheres. Such an object will sink in water if its density is greater than the density (specific gravity) of the water. It will float if it is less dense than the water.
