Oh boy.
Density is the mass per volume...grams per cubic centimeter, tons per cubic yard, whatever.
Water's density is one gram per cubic centimeter. An object with lower density than water will sink into water until the number of cubic centimeters corresponding to the mass of the object are below the surface of the water. If the object is 100 cubic centimeters and it weighs 50 grams, half of it will be below the surface and half above. This is buoyancy, or "floating." Cool so far?
If an object's density is more than one gram per cubic centimeter, the whole thing will be below the surface of the water. Because the water can't support the weight of the item, it will sink to the bottom given enough time.
If it sinks, its density is greater than water...but without weighing it, we can't say how much greater because an item with mass of 5 grams and density of 1.1 grams per cc will sink as surely as a 300-pound anvil with density of 7.2 grams per cc. It just won't do it quite as fast.
First of all its not if the object HAS more or less dense the object is more or less dense. the answer to your question is if the object sinks it is more dense the the liquid that it was put in.
Density will determine if an object sinks because it explains how much matter is involved per unit of volume.
The object that sinks in the fluid is more dense than the fluid
If it sinks its density is greater than the density of water.
-- If the object floats in water, then its density is less than the density of water. -- If the object sinks in water, then its density is more than the density of water. -- If the object floats in air, then its density is less than the density of air. -- If the object sinks in air, then its density is less than the density of air.
Two answers to this: 1. If the object floats on the fluid, then it displaces its own mass in fluid. 2. If the object sinks, it will displace its own volume in fluid.
To sink, the object's density must be greater than the density of water.To sink, the object's density must be greater than the density of water.To sink, the object's density must be greater than the density of water.To sink, the object's density must be greater than the density of water.
The cause is the difference in density; the density of water is 1 g/cm3 and for mercury is 13,5 g/cm3.
You can put a uniform object into water.If it sinks density is higher than water,if floats lesser than water.If you can place anywhere in water,density is equal to water.
The density of an object that sinks is greater than the density of the liquid in which it sinks.
As an object sinks in a fluid the buoyant force on it would remain the same.
If an object sinks in a fluid then it has a density greater than the fluid. This assumes the object is solid and not shaped like a boat.
If the object's density is greater than the density of the fluid you put it in, then it sinks. If less, then it floats in that fluid.
The object's density.If less than the density of the fluid, the object floats.If more than the density of the fluid, the object sinks.
Yes. The object will sink if its density is greater than the fluid it is placed in.
-- If the object floats in water, then its density is less than the density of water. -- If the object sinks in water, then its density is more than the density of water. -- If the object floats in air, then its density is less than the density of air. -- If the object sinks in air, then its density is less than the density of air.
Buoyancy and pressure determine whether the object floats or sinks.
An object will sink in a fluid medium if its density is greater than that of the medium.
The Density.
density!
Higher than what ?? If the object's density is higher than the density of water, then the object sinks in the water.
