Do objects float more easily in salt water or fresh water?
Adding Salt to the water increases the density of the water, and therefore makes it weight more per capita. This in turn causes the salty water to push down with more force then water with no salt, causes things that may not float, to float, and things that already float in normal water, to float higher in salty water.
Will a styrofoam cup float or sink in water?
They would float.
Does iron box float on water when density of iron is less than water?
Yes it would float
When would the density of an object float in liquid water?
The density is not directly relevant. Otherwise, ship made of steel would not float on water.
What are advantages of fluid friction?
One would be........ A swimmer swimming through water
In what type of water would a swimmer float more easily is it salt water or fresh water?
Saltwater.
Would you float more easily in water in a planet of less gravity than that on earth?
No you would sink fasters as water molecules would be farther apart.
How Can the amount of salt in the sea help the swimmers?
The dissolved salt increases the density of the water and makes a swimmer more buoyant. They don't need to try as hard to float as they would in fresh water.
What does 0 gravity feel like?
It feels like you are weightless, and you can float in the air like you float on water. Houses and other structures would float, too, and you would not be able to live --- or build --- a house that easily. If there was no gravity, things would not stay on the ground, so we need gravity to make sure we do not float to the atmosphere.

Does Anorthite sink or float in water?
It will float. Its a rock. It actually depends on how much water you have, if you you tried float it in the ocean, it would obviously sink. But if you tried to float it on a gladd or bowl or water, it would float,
Why do swimmer in water polo weara an head gear?
so that you can tell easily which team people are on, otherwise you would just see their heads and it would be tricky especially from behind i guess.

Will a styrofoam cup float or sink in water?
They would float.
Would sea water float on water?
No.
Which object will sink in simple water and float in salty water?
A Rock would obviously sink in water and a egg would float in salt water Believe it or not bowling balls that are denser than water float!
On a distant planet the acceleration due to gravity is less than it is on earth Would you float more easily in water on this planet than on earth?
Both your weight and the water pressure would decrease, so it would be the same as on earth. Floating is nothing to do with the size of g, provided it isn't zero, or water pressure. If your density is less than that of water, you will float.
