Law of floatation?

The law of floatation states that a floating object displaces its weight of fluid equal to the weight of the object itself. If the weight of the object is less than the weight of the fluid it displaces, it will float; if it is greater, it will sink. This principle is why ships and other objects can float on water.


Does the size of the bath which an object is placed affect the amount of water which overflows?

No. It will affect the distance the water rises, but not the volume of displacement.


What is the difference between Archimedes principle and principle of floatation?

Archmed's principle based on pressure and gravity of substance immersed in water and law of floatation besd on the weight of object


What factors affect an objects ability to sink or float?

the water that it displaces (the amount of water it takes up in the water) is a factor. If the weight of an object is lighter than the weight of the amount of water it displaces, then, it floats. If the weight is higher than the weight of the water it displaces, then the object sinks.


Does water affect the weight of an object the same thing as does submerging something in water affect the weight of an object?

Yes, when the object is submerged in water then water exerts opposite buoyonci force which decrease the weight of object.

Yes, when a submarine boat pumps water out of its flotation (not floatation) tanks, the submarine should rise.


Does the size of the sponge affect the amount of water absorbed?

The size of a sponge does affect the amount of water absorbed. The bigger the sponge the more water absorbed.


If the mass of an object is weigh and the object is dropped in cylinder containing water but the object is not fully under water will this affect the density?

The density of what? But regardless the answer to that: Density is mass per volume. Mass is not influenced by the upward force of the fluid in which the object is submerged. The weight, on the other hand, is. Weight is a force, and mass is an amount of matter.
