How could you predicd if a block of plastic will float in water?
The block of plastic must be less dense than the water in which it will be placed in order to float. Density is equal to mass over volume (D=m/v), so you could calculate the density of the block of plastic and of a sample of the water by dividing the weight of each sample by the respective volume of each sample. If the density of the plastic is less than the density of the water, it floats! A hint: the maximum density of fresh water occurs at 4 C∘and is equal to 1 gram per 1 milliliter. When a solute - such as salt - is added, the density of water will decrease.
A wooden block has a mass of 1000 kg an a volume of 2 cubic meters What is the blocks density?
1000 kg/ 2 m3 = 500 kg per cubic meter density or 0.5 g/cm3 or approximately half the density of water
What is the density of PURE water in its liquid state?
At 25 degrees C the density of water is 1.0 g/mL. If the temperature of the water goes above 25 degrees C the density will drop. If the temperature of the water goes below 25 degrees C the density will rise.
What has the greater density a cube of water measuring 1cmX1cmX1cm and having a mass of 1g or a block of plasting measuring 2cmX3cmX1cm with the mass of 4g?
Density = mass/volumeFor the cube of water having a mass of 1g:Volume of a cube of water measuring 1cm X 1cm X 1cm =1cm3.Density = 1g/1cm3 = 1g/cm3For the block of "plasting" having a mass of 4g:Volume of the block of plasting measuring 2cm X 3cm X 1cm = 6cm3.Density = 4g/6cm3 = 0.7g/cm3I will let you decide which has the greatest density.
A block has a mass of 455 g and a volume of 600cm what is the blocks density and will it sink or float in freshwater?
The formula for calculating density is:density = mass/volumeThe given mass and volume for the block is 455 g and 600 cm3 respectively.Therefore the density of the block is455 g / 600 cm3 = 0.7583 g/cm3 (grams per cubic centimetre)Since the density of freshwater is 1 g/cm3, this block will float because its density is less than that of the water.
A wooden block is in such perfect contact with the bottom of a water tank that there is no water beneath it. Is there a buoyant force on the block?
No. In fact, it's a question of density not of buoyancy. As it is less dense than the water, the water will sink below the block.
What can you infer about the density if a block of the substance floats in water?
We infer that the density of the block is less than that of water
What part of the block of wood remains immersed in water of density 1000kg per cm cube when the block of wood placed in water has density 700 Kg per m cube?
-- The aggregate density of the wood block is 700/1000 = 0.7 the density of water. -- So, as soon as the wood has displaced 0.7 of its volume in water, it has displaced its entire weight in water, and floats. -- The wood floats with 0.7 of its volume below the surface and 0.3 of its volume above it.
What does a solid block with a lower density than water do in a container of water?
A solid block with a lower density than water will float in a container of water.
Will a block of ebony wood float in water?
a block of ebony will sink in water because it's density is 1.2 g/cm3 and the water's density is 1g/cm3
What can you infer about the density of a substance if a block of that substance floats in water?
because the density is lower than water.
What can you infer about the density of substance if a block of that substance floats in water?
because the density is lower than water.
Rectangular Block of Wood in density?
A triple-beam balance can be used. The units could be g/ml the density of a normal wood is 0.88 but a wood block in density can be anything under 1 so it can be 0.95,0.54,etc. waters density is 1 and would can float on water so wood is anything below 1.
How do you calculate if a block of wood will float in water or not?
If the density of the block is less than the density of water, then the block will float. Density of water is close to 1 gram per cubic centimeter. So measure the block and calculate its volume (Length x Width x Height). Use a scale to find the block's mass. Then divide mass/volume to calculate density. If you've measured in grams and centimeters, then the units will be g/cm³, then compare this to 1 g/cm³.
Will a block of wood with a mass of 1000 grams will sink in water?
No. It doesn't matter how heavy a block of wood is, it depends on the density of the wood. Generally wood floats as the density of wood is lighter than the density of the water, so it would float.
What is the density of an object that floats in H2O?
Water has a density of exactly 1. Anything below 1 will floatin water.
