Because the hull of the ship contains air inside it, which decreases the density of the ship enough to make it less dense than the surrounding water, and therefore it floats.
The titanic did not float because it was only able to float if 4 or less water compartments flooded instead more did and it was to much for the titanic to hold and sadly many people died.
They float in water. Or, at least they're suppose to.
A ship must displace an amount of water equal to its own weight in order to float. This principle, known as Archimedes' Principle, states that the buoyant force acting on an object submerged in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
It's a mathematical equation of buoyancy and mass displacement divided by actually weight.
None it was a ship, not a plane
A ship can float because of the principle of buoyancy. When a ship displaces water that weighs more than the ship itself, it creates an upward force called buoyant force that helps keep the ship afloat. This allows the ship to stay on the surface of the water rather than sinking.
Back then, it was. There are dozens of ships today that are much larger than Titanic
No. Many ships have been built that are much larger than the Titanic.
Titanic was the largest ship in 1912.
your ship is average size i suppose, then it depends on how much oil you have.
false
Titanic was the largest ship of its kind when it was built
