What do you call something when it can float?
An object that can float on water or other fluids is called buoyant.
Why does a rock has to sink?
A rock sinks because it is not buoyant. Buoyancy is whether or not something floats in water. There are three levels of buoyancy; buoyant, neutrally buoyant, and not buoyant. When something is buoyant, that means it has a lower density than water, causing it to float. When something is neutrally buoyant, that means it has roughly the same density as water, causing it to float half way between the bottom and the surface. Finally, when something is not buoyant (like a rock), that means that it has a higher density than water, causing it to sink to the bottom.
Float is to what as buoyant is to mobile?
Float is to water as buoyant is to air.

Buoyant - is something that 'floats' on the surface of whatever medium it is resting on. For example a boat on water is buoyant.
If the object is buoyant wil it tend to sink or float?
Buoyant means: Tending to float on a liquid or rise in air or gas
What is the buoyant force used for?
To Float
What is the effect of buoyant force on the ability an object has to float?
The buoyant force is what causes and object to float. If the buoyant force is less than the object weight, it sinks. If the buoyant force is greater than the objects weight, it rises to the top. If it is equal, the object will float in the middle, neither rising or falling.
Is there a buoyant force acting on you if there is why are you not buoyant up by this force?
Yes, there is a buoyant force acting on you when you are submerged in a fluid. However, whether you float or sink depends on the relationship between the buoyant force and your weight. If the buoyant force is greater than your weight, you will float; if it is less, you will sink.
What dose buoyant mean?
Buoyant is an adjective and it means 'able to float'. Example: The inner tube was buoyant.
