Does an object sink faster in water vinegar or vegatable oil?
why does an object sink
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.
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.
Why things sink into water any why not?
An object will sink if it has a greater density than water. In this case, the weight of the water displaced by the object is less than the weight of the object.
Do ceramic float or sink?
a solid ceramic object would sink. however, if the object is displacing enough water proportional to it's weight, then it will float. If you put an empty glass bowl in the water, it will float; but if you allow water in, it will sink. This applies to ceramics.
When will an object sink or float?
Object will sink when the area replaced by the object is less than the body of water and vice-versa .
What affects how an object sink and float in water?
the density of the object
How does an object sink or flot on wate?
If the object is less dense than water, the water will be able to keep it afloat. If the object is more dense than water, the water will not be able to keep it afloat, and it will sink.
If a object has air inside will it sink?
If an object has air in it than no it will not sink in water because air is less dense than water so it will rise in water.
Does the denser object sink in water?
It depends! If it is more dense than water then it will sink. If not it will float.
Will a fork sink or float?
A fork will sink in water, as it is denser than water. The density of an object determines whether it will sink or float in water.
How do you determine if something will sink or float in water?
To determine if an object will sink or float in water, you compare the density of the object to the density of water. If the object is denser than water, it will sink. If the object is less dense than water, it will float. The principle of buoyancy, which states that an object will float if it displaces an amount of water equal to its weight, also plays a role in determining whether something will sink or float.
