Buoyancy and displacement, Archimides' Principle:

"Any object, wholly or partially immersed in a fluid, is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object"

Why does ship float on sea?

A ship floats on the sea due to the principle of buoyancy. The weight of the water displaced by the ship is equal to the weight of the ship, allowing it to float. This is because the density of the ship is lower than the density of water.


Which sea would a ship float best in?

A sea comprised of liquid, with the greatest possible density.

The Dead Sea is known for its high salt content, which makes it easy for humans to float on its surface.


Why ships floating in the sea?

ship float in the sea because water has less density than any substance ship has much weight and thatswhy it sinks


Why in dead sea ship float easily?

The water of the Dead Sea is unusually salty (even for a sea) and hence, it is also unusually dense.


How the ship floats on sea?

Displacement - the ship displaces an amount of water equal to its weight. Provided that this dowes not submerge the vessel, it will float.


Do you float in sea water?

Yes, objects tend to float in sea water due to its high density compared to fresh water. The salt content in sea water makes it denser, providing more buoyancy for objects to float.


Why does salt makes an object float?

it increases the density of the water, making objects float easier. ex. the dead sea.


Why do ship float better at sea than in fresh water?

Sea water has salt, and therefore a higher density.
