the dead sea
The water in the dead sea has a high concentration of salt, so it has a higher density than normal sea water and a much higher density than regular water. With a higher density the upthrust (force upwards) in the water is larger so it can support more weight than other water.
The extreme salinity - saltiness - means the water there has a higher density than regular sea water. and the higher the density the greater the buoyancy.
If you compare the density of sea water, and then compared the extremely salty Dead Sea, you will find that the more salt in the water, the higher is the density. Which is why you can float on the Dead Sea while reading a newspaper (which I once saw demonstrated in a documentary). Also, a ship will float lower on a fresh water lake, and float higher on salt water.
because it has so much salt in it that it enables the body to float instead of sinking in the water
the more salt in water the more bouyant an object becomes the salt makes the more denser therefore objects that are of a lesser density will tend to float on the dead sea
yes the salt with water is denser . The density of salt water is more as compared to plain water. take the example of dead sea also called the Salt Sea, a person does not drown in dead sea due to high salinity. But in normal sea one would be drowned.
because the dead sea has more salt than the other seas.
depth and salinity increases density of sea water increases
the density of sea water increases as salinity increases and temperature decreases
it increases the density of the water, making objects float easier. ex. the dead sea.
Sea water and fresh water does not have the same density because sea water has salt, which makes it more dense than fresh water Sea water and fresh water does not have the same density because sea water has salt, which makes it more dense than fresh water
