To be straight in answering,I would write that if that particular object has its density nearly equal to the density of fluid displaced by its submerged part then only the object will be likely to float in the fluid.

Why might an object float in water?
Since density is proportional to it's mass and the ability to float is inversely proportional to it's volume, an object that's heavy will sink and an object that's light should float. An object that has some surface volume should float, while an object that has little surface volume should sink.
What effect does buoyancy have on a submerged object?
It tends to float the submerged object on the surface of that medium.
If an object's density is is less than that of the fluid what will happen?
it will float providing it is in that fluidIt will float on the surface of the fluid.
If an object has the same density as the fluid it is submerged in the object will always?
Will always float with the top surface level with the water
Why do some objects float in fluids but others don't?
Any object will float if its density is less than the density of the fluid,and it'll sink if its density is greater than the density of the fluid.

Which law tells you if a object will float or sink?
You must compare the densities of the object and whatever substance you are putting it in. If the density of an object is greater than the substance it is in, then the object will not float on the surface
If an object's density is is less than that of the fluid what will happen?
it will float providing it is in that fluidIt will float on the surface of the fluid.
What happens to an object when it is placed in a less dense liquid or gas?
The density of the object goes through the less denser liquids until it gets to a liquid that is more dense than it. The first liquid that is denser than the object, the object will float on the liquid. My class did this in Science Class.
If an object has the same density as the fluid it is submerged in the object will always?
Will always float with the top surface level with the water
What controls buoyancy?
It is the ability for an object to float. Buoyancy determines if the object is able to float in the water or not.Buoyancy can not only happen in water, other fluids are not prohibited. Buoyancy can depend on the fluid's density.If something is not or barely able to float, it is less buoyant.If something can float with little or no effort, it is more buoyant.

When an object float what does the object have?
when a object float it has density
What type of water would a swimmer float more easily?
Objects always have more buoyancy in denser fluids than less dense fluids. Therefore, swimmers would float more easily in very salty water.FUN FACT:The Dead Sea, in Jordan, Israel, is so salty that you can float on the surface!
How does a flat shaped object float?
Well it depends on the density of the object and the density of the liquid that it is placed in. The object produces a buoyant force that lifts it to the surface of the liquid.
