Technically, the object's weight is the same. The effective or measured weight, however, will be the original weight minus the weight of displaced water.

After weting thing will have lss weight?
No - after you wet something it increases its weight because water has weight.
Does water affect the weight of an object the same thing as does submerging something in water affect the weight of an object?
Yes, when the object is submerged in water then water exerts opposite buoyonci force which decrease the weight of object.
Homynym for wade?
The homonym for wade is weighed. Wade means to walk through water, while weighed means to measure the weight of something.
What are the reason why some things float in the water?
Certain things float in water because their density is less than the density of water. If something experiences more upthrust in water than its weight(upthrust>weight) or upthrust=weight, then it floats in water.
Will weight change if you put water oil and syrup in the freezer?
Well, the weight of the freezer will change when something is put in, but the freezing of these materials will NOT change their weight.
What will happen to the weight reading if a rock is dropped into water?
It depends what the weight reading was originally measuring. If it was measuring the weight of the experimenter and the rock they were holding, and the water is not being held by them, then the weight will decrease by the weight of the rock. If it was measuring the weight of the water into which the rock it dropped, then it will increase by the weight of the rock. If it was measuring the weight of something totally unrelated to the experiment, then dropping the rock will have no measurable effect on the reading of the weight. Context needs to be given for the weight reading for a proper answer to be given.
Why is there a difference between the weight of an object in air and its weight in water?
weight of object in water = (Mass of object) time acceleration of gravity - Mass of an equal volume of water times acceleration of gravity. note weight of object in water can be a negative value.
On a can of peas does the weight include the water?
Generally it only includes the soup that is in there unless there is something written on the packing that states otherwise Generally it only includes the soup that is in there unless there is something written on the packing that states otherwise
What does the weight of something depend on?
Weight of something depends on mass
What dose the name Graham mean?
Gram is a weight or mass of something. It is the amount of mass of a cubic centimeter of water.
Can you walk on the rainbow?
No. A rainbow is created by water vapour and light passing through it therefore its not something that is weight bearing
Why do needle sinks in water but ship floats?
Whether something sinks when it's placed on water is determined by the amount (weight) of water that it displaces. The needle, being small in size and relatively high in mass (relative to its size), displaces very little water when it is placed on the surface. The weight of the needle will be more than the weight of the water that it displaces and the needle will sink. The ship, though many times heavier than the needle, will displace alot more water than the needle. The ship will float if the weight of the displaced water is more than the weight of the ship.
