Which property of water allows things to float?
There is NO property of water that allows things to float. Floating in not a property of a substance. It is the difference in density of two objects that allows one to be buoyant when surrounded by the other. This a balloon can float on air, A steel ship can float on water and oil can float on water.
Buoyancy exerted by a fluid is directly related to which property of the fluid?
Its density.
How can you test if something is buoyant?
The easiest way is to place it in a large container of water. There are more complex, scientific ways to test buoyancy, but this requires the use of modeling computers.
Why is an immersed object buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces?
Because buoyancy is a property of fluids, and not the object immersed in them. By comparing densities, you get that buoyancy is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced, because the volume of an object is equal to the volume displaced.
Was buoyancy always called buoyancy?
yes, it is the same.
What if buoyancy is the property of matter that can be defined as?
Buoyancy is a force exerted by a fluid against an immersed object.
What is buoyancy in plants?
Buoyancy is nothing related to plants. It is the property of a fluid to exert an upward thrust on a body emerged into it .
Is buoyancy a chemical property?
Yes, buoyancy is considered a physical property. It is a type of physical property because it is related to the density and weight of the item, which are both physical.
What The property of ice that allows it to float in water?
Buoyancy; negative density.

Buoyancy exerted by a fluid is directly related to which property of the fluid?
Its density.
What is an experiment you can do to test buoyancy?
Place the object to be tested in the liquid you are interested in and see if it floats or not.
What do hydrometer test?
Hydrometers test specific gravity in a liquid/relative density they are used for anti freeze, batteries etc. They also test the buoyancy of water.
What affect provided by water aerobics helps make the exercise beneficial?
Buoyancy
What physical property is demonstrated by a piece of styrofoam floating on water?
There are several. They would include displacement, buoyancy, and density.
The ability of an object to resist current is called?
Resistance. And the object exhibiting this property is called a resistor.
Make a noun by adding a suffix to buoyant?
The noun form of the adjective buoyant is buoyancy, a concrete noun; a word for a physical property. There is no abstract noun form of the adjective buoyant, however, the noun 'buoyancy' can be used in an abstract context, for example: A feeling of buoyancy came over me when she started down the aisle.
