Not necessarily. An object's ability to float in a liquid depends on the density of the object compared to the density of the liquid. Even though an object may float in oil, it may not float in water if the object is more dense than water.
The weight of an object is maximum in air, as air offers more resistance to the weight of the object compared to water, vacuum, or oil.
why does an object sink
Yes, oil can affect the buoyancy of an object by displacing water. When an object is placed in oil, it experiences an upward force due to the difference in density between the oil and the object. This can result in the object appearing to float or sink depending on the relative densities involved.
It has to do with density. If an object is less dense than water (for example, oil), it floats. If an object is more dense than water, it sinks.
In the water. If you put oil and water in a container together, the oil will float on top of the water. This shows that the water is more dense than the oil. An object floats when it is less dense than the liquid by displacing the liquid. Water has a density of about 1 gram per cubic centimeter. Cooking oil has a density of about 0.92 grams per cc. So if you were to drop an object with a density of, say, 0.95 g/cc into the oil, it would sink. The same object would float in water.
Oil can pollute the water (you might not consider that an object) and when people throw trash in rivers or ocean or even lakes the water can be polluted.
A marble will sink faster in water than in oil because water has a higher density than oil. The higher the density of the liquid, the faster an object will sink in it.
Specific gravity of oil=[Weight of object-Weight in oil]\[Weight of object-Weight in water] Take weight of object as X 0.83=x-4\x-3 X=8.882lb Specific gravity of object= X/X-3 =1.51 Density=1510kgm-3 Volume=Mass\Density Volume=4.0288\1510=0.002668m3 If there is anything wrong please let me know.Thank you!
The weight of an object depends on the object mass and the earth's gravity, and has nothing to do with the medium it is in. It is the definition of a physical quantity.
No. The ice does not float on oil or kerosene, it is because a kerosene is a non-polar solute whil the ice which came from H2o is a polar solute in which it contradicts with each other. When the ice melts, the ice become water, the water is denser than kerosene, so the kerosene floats for it has a lighter density while the water sinks for it has a denser density.
