What keeps a ship steady?
anchor
How do you put inertia in a sentence?
Inertia keeps the planets in a steady balance.
How a ship keeps a float?
It basically wants to push (displace) water away from underneath it. Since the volume of water is always much larger than the actual ship, it will never be able to displace enough water to sink. That is - unless it's damaged below the water-line so water can flood in.
Difference between an empty ship and loaded ship in sea water?
A loaded ship is going to sink into the water more,causing water to displace..
What makes ship not to sink in water?
It's the way how the ship is built. The ship in the water is able to fully displace water equal to it own weight, so that the water exerts a greater upthrust on the ship, than the ship is able to exert on the water with its weight. The net upthrust results in the ship staying afloat. If at any point the ship is not able to displace an amount of water equal to its weight, it will keep sinking until EITHER the ship finally displaces the right amount of water and begins to float OR the ship cannot displace enough water and becomes completely submerged, and sinks to the bottom of the body of water.

What is a hull used for on a ship?
The hull is the outside part that is in contact with the water. It holds back the water so that the ship floats.
What is keeps the number of paramecium at a steady level?
About 100 paramecium per every 58ml of water with a controlled environment keeps them at a rather constant growth rate if that is what you are asking.
What does helm mean like steady your helm?
The "helm" is the place where one controls a ship's direction. "Take the helm" means to take control of where the ship goes. To "steady your helm" means to ensure a straight and steady course and not be turning the ship.
What is a keel of a ship?
It is the lengthwise timber or steel structure along the bottom of the boat/ship. It supports the framework and keeps the vessel balanced in the water
What keeps ships afloat and why?
The weight of water displaced by the floating ship is less than the weight of the ship. So it floats. Thanks to Archimedes!
What device keeps the heart at a good steady pace?
computer
How does ship stay afloat?
The ship floats because of its large volume which displaces an amount of water that is more than its weight. That creates an upward force called buoyant force which keeps the ship on the surface.
How do you put inertia in a sentence?
Inertia keeps the planets in a steady balance.
Is it harder to hold a ship steady on some object ahead than to keep the ship on course by compas?
true
What name is given to the heavy material put on a ship to steady it?
Ballast
What keeps the number of plants and animals in an ecosystem at a steady level?
