What objects float and what objects don't?
Objects whose density is lower than the density of the fluid they're in float. Objects whose density is higher than the density of the fluid they're in don't.
How do objects sink or float in water?
objects with higher density than water sink, ones with a lower density float
How does an objects density help you determine if the object will sink or float?
If an objects density is greater than the waters density it will sink but if it's density is less than the waters density it will float
Which things float on water and which sinks into it?
Objects whose aggregate density is less than the density of water float in it. Objects whose aggregate density is greater than the density of water sink in it.
How does density tell you if an object will float pure water?
If an objects density is 1 or less, it will float on water
What objects float and what objects don't?
Objects whose density is lower than the density of the fluid they're in float. Objects whose density is higher than the density of the fluid they're in don't.
What objects float in water?
objects that are less dense float to the top.
How do objects sink or float in water?
objects with higher density than water sink, ones with a lower density float
How does an objects density help you determine if the object will sink or float?
If an objects density is greater than the waters density it will sink but if it's density is less than the waters density it will float
Which things float on water and which sinks into it?
Objects whose aggregate density is less than the density of water float in it. Objects whose aggregate density is greater than the density of water sink in it.
Hoe does an objects density determine whether the object will sink?
If an objects density is less than the density of what it is put in it will float. If the objects density is greater it will sink.
How does density tell you if an object will float pure water?
If an objects density is 1 or less, it will float on water
Why objects float or sink when placed on surface of water?
Because of the comparative density. If the objects density is greater than water it will sink, if less then it will float.
What does an objects density have to be in order to float in water?
The objects density has to be less than that of water (which is 1000kg/m3).
Objects float in water because water has an?
Objects that float in water have a lower density than water. -anonymous18_K
Why do some objects float and others dont?
Because some objects are a lot denser than water so the sink and others are less denser so they float
How does the relative density of objects determine whether objects float or sinks in liquids?
If the density of the object is greater than that of the liquid then it will sink. If the density of the object is lower it will float. To calculate density; density=mass(g)/volume(cm3)
