Does gravity affect density's properties For example if there was no gravity would objects that typically sink in water not?

Gravity may cause the density of a medium to vary with depth.
For example because we have gravity the pressure in water is much higher 1 kilometer below the surface than just 1 meter. This is because the water at 1 kilometer down also has to carry the water above it. If there was no gravity water would not fall down, and as such there would be no pressure (and thus no density difference).
Without gravity objects would not sink. Think of it this way; the only thing that separates up from down in water is that gravity pulls things down. If it was not present up and down would be equal, so you expect the object to respect that and just remain where it is.
By the way, liquid only varies very slightly with increased pressure.

The weight of an object is an example of?
The weight of an object is an example of the physical properties of the object and the effect of gravity on a mass.
Can you make gravity using magnets?
No, but certain properties of gravity can simulated, using a magnet.
What type of force allows you to stand up from a chair?
Muscular Strength. Gravity is weak in this example. The acids in your bodies work together to get tissues moving. You can overcome gravity. What keeps you there? The answer is the properties of solids, which hold the shape of your body.
Gravity is an example of what?
an example of gravity is sky diving. the gravity is pulling down the the ground after you jump out of the plane.
What happens when the force of gravity?
It typically tends to
Which is not an example of gravity?
Nothing, gravity affects everything in the universe every yocto-second. You cant come up with a non example. Even anti-gravity is an example of gravity since your just reversing the pull of gravity to a push.
What properties are not used to identify minerals?
I think its Specific Gravity :)
What are the 4 properties of matter that change?
Gravity, acceleration, weight, and force.
What are five properties of rock?
cleavage, metallic, foliated, nonfoliated, and gravity.
Is specific gravity a chemical or physical properties?
Yes.
Is gravity is example of physics?
Gravity is an example of a force of nature being studied by physics. Physics is a human endevour to help increase our understanding of the natural world. To describe nature we have theories; for example we have the Theory of Gravity to explain gravity.
What are non examples of gravity?
Mud is anon-example of gravity.
