As per Archimedes principle for floating the weight of the displaced water has to be equal to the weight of the boat. Hence for more water to get displaced the boat has to sink more.

Difference between an empty ship and loaded ship in sea water?

An empty ship has less displacement and sits higher in the water compared to a loaded ship, which has more displacement and sits lower in the water due to the added weight of cargo. This difference affects stability, maneuverability, and fuel efficiency of the ship.


Compared with an empty ship would a ship loaded with cargo of foam insulation sink deeper into water or rise in water?

A ship that weighs 1,000 pounds displaces 1,000 pounds of water. Basically you are making a hole in the water that would take 1,000 pounds of water to fill, if it was Jell-o you could see the hole when you took the ship out. If you add 100 pounds of weight to the ship, be it feathers, foam, or lead, it will sink deeper and displace 100 more pounds of water.


Would a school bus stop easier when its full or empty?

A school bus would generally stop more easily when it's empty because it has less weight to slow down. An empty bus has a lower inertia, meaning it can decelerate more quickly compared to a fully loaded bus, which is heavier and requires more distance to stop safely. However, factors such as weight distribution and braking system efficiency also play a role in stopping distances.

Why wood floats in water?

Wood mostly floats in water because it has a lower density than water. it is NOT lighter than water, it is LESS DENSE. water has a density of 1.0 g/cm cubed. that means wood usually has a density of .99 or less. But, not all wood floats, keep that in mind


Give you a sentence for the word density?

Foam has a lower density than water, so it floats.

The block of Styrofoam floats on water while a same size block of lead lies submerged in the water. The buoyant force is greatest on the lead. Compared to an empty ship, the same ship loaded with Styrofoam will float lower in the water.
