Teak, ebony, mahogany.
The pebble is heavier than water so it sinks. The wood isn't heavier than water so it floats.
The liquid is water, the rock here is pumice and the wood mentioned here is ironwood.
Cold water sinks, hot water rises.
none, but i could sink if you gave it a name like Wood that has 1 million tonnes on it :) HEHE Thnx
Wood does not absorb water as easily as the paper. The paper had its fibers torn apart and then loosely assembled then dried to make flat sheets, when exposed to water the paper dehydrates very quick and thus sinks. The wood having an intact cell structure will absorb water and become "water Logged" over a long period, some over a period of years.
Well it wasn't Natalie Wood because Natalie Wood sinks in water.
pine wood?
the density of water is higher than the density of wood... & so an iron piece sinks & a ton of wood floats...
Something has neutral bouyancy if it stays in the water wherever you put it, only if it has the same density as the water - there is no cause for it to float or sink than the volume of water it has displaced. If its density is more, as for a stone, it must be heavier than that so it sinks. For wood, it is lighter so water from above drops down as the wood rises.

yes, wood eventually becomes waterlogged and sinks, plastic does not become waterlogged.
Wood floats on water, but iron sinks into it.
Would you chop this wood for me? is an example
The water extracted by the wood log while floating is of equal weight of the wood or more. For this reason, the log of wood floats while a steel needle sinks.
iron is more dense then water and wood is less dense then water. iron sinks because it is heavier then the density of water. wood sinks because woods density is lighter then the density of water.
The density of the wood is lower than the density of the water, so the water displaces the wood and is held to the 'floor' by gravity. Lead is more dense, so it can displace the water and sink.
