Why does a stone in water sinks and the wood floats into the water?
Something has neutral bouyancy if it stays in the water wherever you put it, only if it has the same density as the water - there is no cause for it to float or sink than the volume of water it has displaced. If its density is more, as for a stone, it must be heavier than that so it sinks. For wood, it is lighter so water from above drops down as the wood rises.
