If an object floats does that mean it is dence?
If an object floats it is less dense than the substance it's floating in.
Do an object that floats in water will sink in mercury?
If an object floats in water it will also float in the much denser mercury
Which object weighs more a can that floats or a can that sinks?
It is impossible to tell; whether an object floats or sinks depends on its density, not on its weight.
What determains if an object floats or sinks?
The Density.
Which property of an object will never affect whether the object sinks or floats?
Color
When an object floats the buoyant force is the weight of the object?
If the object is floating, then the buoyant force is equal to the object's weight.
When an object floats the buoyant force is what the weight of the object?
If the object is floating, then the buoyant force is equal to the object's weight.
How does the volume of an object affect whether it sinks or floats?
Well usually, the bigger the volume, the better it floats. But mostly, it matters about how much mass an object contains.
An object that floats on the surface of water?
the amount of density
How does an object float?
An object floats when the objects density is LESS than the liquid your using.
What can you say about the buoyant force of an object floats in a fluid?
If the object is floating, then the buoyant force is equal to the object's weight.
What both objects are made of the same material but the heavier object floats but the lighter object sinks?
If the object sinks or floats depends on mass or weight. The object can be made of the same material, but if the weight is not the same (say if it is heavery than water) it will sink.
