What else can I help you with?
What makes an object sink or float?
maybe the density of the objects
Why bodies do not sink in the salty water?
The salt makes the water dense and the object must be heavier like metal or a ship to sink.
What makes a small rock sink?
It's weight. The general rule is that an object will sink if it has a density greater than the liquid in which it is placed.
What makes something sink in water?
An object will sink in water if its density is greater than the density of water. This means that the weight of the object is greater than the buoyant force acting on it. Consequently, the object displaces less water than its weight.
What force makes objects sink?
The earth's gravitational pull makes objects sink in a liquid, but buoyancy acts in the opposite direction to oppose the gravity. Whether an object sinks or floats depends on which force is bigger. ================================
What makes Things sink?
Objects sink when their density is greater than the density of the fluid they are in. This causes them to displace a volume of fluid that weighs less than the object itself, leading to the object sinking due to the force of gravity.
Does an object sink faster in water vinegar or vegatable oil?
why does an object sink
How can you use the density of an object to predict whether it will float or sink in the water?
the buoyant force acts in the direction opposite to the force of gravity, so it makes the object feel lighter
Is mass what makes things float or sink in water?
The density of an object compared to the density of water determines whether it will float or sink. An object with a higher density than water will sink, while an object with a lower density will float. Mass does play a role in determining density but is not the sole factor in whether something floats or sinks.
Will an object with holes bob up and down in the water or will it sink if it floated before you put holes in it?
It depends on the boyancy of the material and the location of the holes. A ship holed below the waterline will sink. A body board with holes in will float.
What makes an object float in salt water and sink in fresh water?
the salt water is denser because of the salt
What makes poo sink or float?
Buoyancy, which is an upward acting force exerted by a fluid , that opposes an object's weight.
