Water surface tension hold the needle on the water surface.
Water surface tension hold the needle on the water surface.
A needle sink in water.
the way it float is surface tension!!
i think that vol of water underneath the needle when it is dropped on water parallely is more which prevents the needle from sinking.
It will float if placed carefully enough.
Surface tension
A needle sink in water.
A needle can be made to float on very still water.
the way it float is surface tension!!
Due to surface tension, the upper surface of water acts like a stretched membrane which enables it to float a swing needle.

Bouyancy is what makes a boat float
It will float if placed carefully enough.

Surface tension
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).
Because the detergent reduces the surface tension of the water.
It has air inside that makes it float.
