What will happen to a solid object made from matter with a greater density that water when it is dropped into water?
It will sink when the object is placed in water.
How do you know an object has a density greater than water?
If an object placed in water sinks - then it has a density greater than water.
What will happen if the density of an object placed in a liquid if the density of the liquid is greater than that of the object?
If the density of the liquid is greater than that of the object, the object will sink. This is because the liquid is denser and exerts a greater buoyant force on the object, causing it to sink until it reaches an equilibrium point where the buoyant force equals the gravitational force.
What object placed in a liquid of greater density will do this?
an object will float on a denser liquid
Does the tendency for an object to sink or float have to do with the object's density?
Yes. The object will sink if its density is greater than the fluid it is placed in.
What will happen if a substance with a mass density greater than water is placed onto a container if water?
The object will dissolve in the container of water.
Is buoyancy and density the same?
An object with greater density than the liquid it is placed will tend to sink
What will happen to an object placed in water if the object's density is less than the density of water?
We both know it floats
If an object sinks when being placed in water its density is?
To sink, the object's density must be greater than the density of water.To sink, the object's density must be greater than the density of water.To sink, the object's density must be greater than the density of water.To sink, the object's density must be greater than the density of water.
What will happen to an object placed in a tub of water if it has a density greater than 1.0 g?
It is likely to sink. However, it may float if it is shaped like a boat.
How can one predict whether an object will float or sink in a liquid?
An object will sink if its density is greater than the liquid in which it is placed; it will float if its density is less.
Why does an object float or sink when placed on the surface of water?
An object floats in water if the object's density is less than water's...Conversely, an object will sink if it's density is greater than that of water.
