What will happen if a solid object immersed in a fluid weighs more than the volume of the fluid displaced by the solid?
Then the solid object has a greater density and will sink.
What is the density on fluid of an object sinking?
If an object sinks in a fluid then it has a density greater than the fluid. This assumes the object is solid and not shaped like a boat.
What is the tendency of a solid object to float in a fluid?
"buoyancy"
What law determines an object will float or sink in a fluid?
An object will float in a fluid if it is less dense than that fluid, because the mass of that object displaces less of the fluid than is the volume of the object. An object denser than that fluid would continue to displace the fluid until it met something either solid or more dense.
Does light stop when it meets a solid object?
Some of it is absorbed, some is reflected, and some passes through. How much of each effect happens depends on the wavelength of the light and the composition of the object.
What are fluid frictions?
Fluid friction occurs when a solid object moves through a fluid.
What is a fluid friction?
it happens when a solid object goes though water
What is friction that occurs when a solid object moves through a fluid?
Resistance.
Do wings produce parasitic drag?
Yes. Any solid object moving through a fluid does.

What happens to a fluid when temperature decreases?
When temperature decreases, a fluid will eventually freeze and become solid

Some of it is absorbed, some is reflected, and some passes through. How much of each effect happens depends on the wavelength of the light and the composition of the object.
What happens when a solid and a lquid melts?
A solid melts when heated. aaliquid becomes more fluid or evaporates
How do you smash a window?
Run through it, or throw a solid object at it.
