What happens if an object of higher density is placed in water?
Higher than what ?? If the object's density is higher than the density of water, then the object sinks in the water.
Why does a aluminum sinks?
Aluminum (aluminium) has a higher density than water.
An object that sinks into a fluid is?
As an object sinks in a fluid the buoyant force on it would remain the same.
What is the density of object compared to the density fluid when it sinks?
The density of an object that sinks is greater than the density of the liquid in which it sinks.
If you put water into a bottle of liquor does it rise or sink?
It sinks because it has a higher density.
Describe the process of subduction and how density plays a role in this process?
Ocean lithosphere is higher density so it sinks to the bottom.
Why does Syrup settles to bottom?
Sirup sinks in water because it is denser. Liquid of higher density always sinks in liquid of lower desity.
An example of a density higher than 1?
Water has a density of 1 - therefore anything that sinks in water (e.g. iron with a density of 7.874) has a density higher than 1 and anything that floats in water has density less than 1.
Does h2s float or sink in air?
H2S higher density than air.So it sinks in air.
When you compare the density of water or air with another object how can you tell which has the lower or higher density?
-- If the object floats in water, then its density is less than the density of water. -- If the object sinks in water, then its density is more than the density of water. -- If the object floats in air, then its density is less than the density of air. -- If the object sinks in air, then its density is less than the density of air.
Is an objects density determines whether it floats or sinks in water?
yes it does. try to sink a cork. it doesn't sink but on the other hand a iron nail does.the higher the mass the more the density and so the object sinks.
Why does a penny sink faster in water than Sprite?
sprite has sugar so it will take a while for it to sink. the penny will sink faster in water because it doesnt have sugar or anything that soda has
