Why does needle sinks in water?
As we know that the ratio of the density to the volume is inverse relation. As the volume of the object is lesser, than the density will be greater.So the condition of floating bodies depend upon the weight of the displaced liquid.If the object(needle) is denser,so it will not be able to displace more liquid.Therefore needle sinks in water.

Why the ship does not sink and a needle sinks?
The general principle is that an object will sink if it has a greater density than the liquid in which it is placed.
Will something with a lower density float on something with a higher density?
A liquid with a higher density than 1g/cm3 (one gram per cubic centimeter) (the density of water) will sink in water.
how long does the bone density dexa take?
Bone density tests are fast and easy. They may sting a little when the needle hits the bone but you will be okay. The whole test should take around 20 minutes.
Can you float a needle?
Yes, you can float a needle I have done it before. It doesn't have to do with density though it has to do with surface tension.
A steel needle sinks in h20 but a steel ship floats?
The needle is solid, it's density higher than water's. The ship is hollow, its overall density lower than water's.
Why needle do not flow on water?
Because needles density is higher than water

Why a 0.5g needle sinks into the sea while a ton of ice floats?
The needle sink in water because we put the needle in water...
Why can a sewing needle can float on the surface water in a glass?
Yes if the surface tension of the water is not broken. If you are careful you can place a needle on the surface of the water in a glass. Also if you reduce the surface tension with detergent (just a very little is enough) the needle will sink because it's density is greater than that of the water. NO (if the surface tension of the water is broken, a needle cannot float on the surface of water. This is because the needle has higher density than water (density is mass divided by volume).

Does things sink in water if they have higher or lower densities than water?
things that have higher density than water will sink as a needle but a hip doesnot.
If you lay a steel needle horizontally on water it will float if you place the needle vertically into the water it will sink explain why?
Needle floats if u place it on the surface of the water even its density is heavier than water because there is a thin film on the water surface that is stretched towards the sides of the container because of the collision force of the molecules & this is called suface tension when u plae the needle vertically it tears the film therefore it sinks
