Does the shape of an object affect whether it sinks or floats?
No, every object has a fixed density. if the density is less than water it will float. If not, it wont. Hope this answers your question!
How does mass affect the shape of an object?
how does mass affect the shape of an object?
Why doesn't changing an object's shape or size affect it's density?
No, size doesn't affect an object's shape because it's the same unit and material.
How does the shape of an object affect the rate at which it falls - slide4?
The shape of an object affects the wind resistance that will press against the object, slowing it as it falls.
How does changing the shape of an object affect its mass?
It doesn't.

What does shape have to do with whether chemicals mix or not?
The shape of an object can be changed and the object will still remain true to its chemical composition.
Why doesn't changing an object's shape or size affect it's density?
No, size doesn't affect an object's shape because it's the same unit and material.
When placed in water object a floats and object b sinks the objects are the same sizeand shape describe the masses of the objects?
Mass b > mass a

Does the shape of an object affect its movement?
In air, yes. In vacuum, no.
Does the shape affect the way an object falls?
In air, yes. In vacuum, no.
Will a shape of an object affect how fast it falling?
In air, yes. In vacuum, no.

When viewing it the objec . Changes shape
An object floats because it displaces a weight of fluid?
An object floats for three reasons. One, it is less dense than the solution it is floating in. Such as a piece of wood. Two, the object contains something that is less dense than what it is floating in. Such as a baloon. Three, the shape of the object is such that it does not have enough weight to displace enough of the solution to envelop the object. Such as with any seagoing vessell.
