How much more does an object weigh after it has been submerged out of water?

Submerged "out-of-water". That is not possible. It is either submerged or it is out of water. Even when an object is submerger or partically submerged it will not weigh less. The physical characteristics (weight) of the object cannot be changed. The object, when placed in water will displace a certain amount of water and the object will float if the weight of the displaced water is more that the weight of the object. The object will then sink if it weighted more that the weight of the water it displaces. That said, the actual weight of the object doesnt change but if a scale were attached to it while hanging in air, it would read greater that when the object is floating or submerged in water.

Why do clothes weigh more after they have been washed?
Because they're wet and the water held in the material adds to the weight
How much does 25 liters of water weigh?
25 litres of water weighs 25 kg. Easy huh?
What type of instrument would you use to find the volume of a solid?
A displacement can is used to measure the volume of a solid object. A displacement can is a bucket with a spout in the side, near the top. First the bucket is filled until it just overflows the spout. Then something is put under the spout to collect water that comes out. As you submerge the object in the bucket, water will pour out of the spout. The volume of of water that overflowed into the collecting container is measured. The volume of overflow water equals the volume of the solid that was placed in the water. Legend has it that the ancient Greek scholar Archimedes was tasked by the king to measure the volume of gold that had been stolen from him by a crown-maker. While puzzling over the problem, he was taking a bath and noticed the water rise in the tub and realized it was equal to the submerged volume of his body. He leaped from the tub and ran naked down the street shouting eureka, eureka (means I have found it in Greek)
What is immersion thermometer?
A total immersion thermometer is one that has been calibrated to read correctly when the entire thermometer is submerged in a homogeneously temperated liquid/medium.
What do you call if a change of an object position?
If an object has moved, I would say it has moved; there has been moment.
Does the fact that an object has been submerged in water make it weigh more when you take it out because it has soaked up water?
It depends what the object is. If it can soak up water then yes. If it is made of plastic then no.
What is the methodology used for lifting a fingerprint from a metal object that has been submerged in water?
Small Particle Reagent This liquid is used on objects that have been submerged in water. A fingerprint can still be developed even after being exposed to the elements, given the right conditions.
Liquid forced from its previous location by a submerged object has been?
Displaced.
What is the definition of the word emersion?
Emersion can mean, according to the Merriam Webster Dictionary: "when an object that has been submerged in water is removed from the water or is no longer in water." It can also refer to when a star comes out from an eclipse or occultation.
You have an Olin OM206 player that has been submerged in water What do you do?
Throw it in sea
Do insurance companies consider a vehicle a total loss if it has been submerged in a lake?
I guess if you had the choice of where to submerge your vehicle, a lake would be the best place. Lakes are usually fresh water and relatively clean; relative to, say, flood waters. But fully or even partially submerged vehicles are NEVER the same after they are recovered, dried out, and cleaned up, especially if they were submerged in salt or filthy water. Some companies will "total" a car that has been immersed in salt or flood waters. When it has been submerged in fresh water, however, totaling depends upon the value of the car: if the remediation costs more than the car is worth, they will total it.
What is the difference between solid state and submerged fermentation?
Solid-state (substrate) fermentation (SSF) has been defined as the fermentation process occurring in the absence or near-absence of free water. Submerged is liquid state Fermentation
Can guns fire and or operate after they've been submerged in water?
No, the only gun that can do that is the AK-47. No other guns because it clogs and rusts the barrel of the gun.
How fast would an oil pan on a boat engine rust through if the engine had been partially submerged in salt water?
Depends on duration of ion exchange.
What is Procedure that helps determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object while using a graduated cylinder?
Yes you can. You put liquid (usually water) in the graduated cylinder. Then record how much liquid you put in it. Next, put the object in the graduated cylinder. Look at where the water level is now. Take that number and subtract the amount of water you put in and that should give you the approximate volume of the object.
Can spiders hear if they've just recently been submerged in water?
Spiders hear with tiny hairs on their legs called thrichobotria. They still work if the spider is wet.
Who thought of water displacement and yelled eureka?
It was Archimedes, the Greek mathematician, who discovered what is known as 'Archimedes Principal', that states that 'an object submerged in a liquid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.' This principle illustrates that the reason an object floats or sinks depends on the amount of water that it displaces. That is why a huge ship can float even though it is heavy, as it's shape is such that it displaces a huge amount of water. Archimedes discovered this principle when he was in the bath, and is reported to have been so excited by the insight, that he forgot to dress, and ran onto the street exclaiming, 'Eureka', meaning in Greek, 'I have found it'.
