Buoyancy is the ability to float, so if the density is high, it'll hold up something. (see? FLOATING. BUOYANCY.)

How does object volume affect buoyancy?

If the mass stays the same, then when an object gets larger, its density decreases. The larger density=the more bouyancy


How do scuba divers use density?

Divers use substances with high density (ie. lead) to help them sink, and substances with low density (ie. air) to help them float. That way they control their bouyancy.


Why would you float in the dead sea without even trying?

It is very saline, rasing its density so effectively raising your bouyancy.


What does bouyancy mean?

bouyancy- force of weight of gas fluids.


What will be the weight of a 1liter water after made in to ice cube?

The weight will not change at all, assuming we can neglect the tiny effect of the change in density affecting the bouyancy in air. One litre of water weighs one kilogram and when frozen into ice it will still weigh one kilogram.


How does average density affect bouyancy?

The average density of an object determines its buoyancy. If the average density of an object is less than the density of the fluid it is in, it will float. If the average density is greater, it will sink. Buoyancy relies on the difference in densities between the object and the fluid.


What makes a good boat float?

Boats float because the mass of the water they displace is greater than the mass of the boat. This difference in density creates bouyancy.


How do scuba divers alter their average density to float?

Divers usually increase their density by wearing a weight belt (which contains lead weights). Some divers also rely, to a lesser degree, on using steel tanks, which are more dense than aluminum tanks. To decrease their density, divers put air into a Bouyancy Control Device (BCD). Some divers may also control bouyancy by putting air into a drysuit if they wear one. Whereas the increase in density created by the weightbelt is normally fixed, the positive bouyancy provided by the BCD can be varied throughout the dive. Usually a divers net density will decrease over the dive - a diver with a full scuba tank has about 4.5 lbs of extra weight (the weight of the gas) over a diver with an empty scuba tank.
