What else can I help you with?
Is there any material that becomes heavier when submerged in water and lighter when it is taken out?
A porous object absorb water and is heavier. In air the water is evaporated and the object become lighter.
Why would the heavier object float?
An object can float even if it is heavier than water if it is shaped in a way that allows it to displace enough water to generate an upward buoyant force equal to or greater than its weight. This is known as buoyancy and is determined by the object's density and the density of the fluid it is placed in.
When object is placed in water?
When an object is placed in water, it will experience a buoyant force equal to the weight of the water displaced. If the object's density is less than that of water, it will float. If it is greater, it will sink.
Will something weighing 1kg float in water?
No, 1kg object will sink in water because it is heavier than the water it displaces, causing it to have a greater density than water. Objects float when they have a lower density than the fluid they are placed in.
What happens to egg when placed in water for 24 hours?
When an egg is placed in water for 24 hours, the water will gradually move through the eggshell via osmosis. This can cause the egg to swell as water enters the egg, making it heavier. The eggshell may also become softer due to the water absorption.
Why can object heavier than water float in water?
Because the object's weight pushes down on the water itself.That's why if you put in a large object inside,the water pushes itself out.
How is the buoyant force on a floating object related to weight of water it displaces?
The buoyant force on a floating object is equal to the weight of the water it displaces. This is known as Archimedes' principle, which states that the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by an object.
Does water weigh more when an object is placed in it?
no
Would a potato get heavier if you place it in salt water?
No a potato will not get heavier if placed in salt water, and does it really matter if it does? Do not ask stupid questions. Keep it simple.
What is happens to an object when placed in water if the density is below one?
If an object with a density below one is placed in water, it will float. This is because the density of the object is less than that of water, causing it to be buoyant and float on the surface.
Does heavier objects displace more water?
Yes, heavier objects displace more water because they have more mass, which requires a greater volume of water to provide the buoyant force needed to support the object's weight. According to Archimedes' principle, the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the weight of the displaced water, so a heavier object displaces more water to counteract its weight.
What an object that is less dense than water will do when placed in water?
shape
