the density of the apple is less than the density of the water, so gravity pulls the water down with more force than the apple causing the apple to be on top of the water

What force makes an object float on water?
Buoyancy.
What force makes a ship float?
water resistance
What force is pushing up?
Bouyancy... its what makes things float in water.
What makes a fruit float or sink?
Density. It depends how dense the fruit is and how much water there is. Suppose you had a 1" by 2" aquarium full of water, and you dropped an apple in it. The apple would float, because it would be less dense then the water.
What force causes objects to float on water?
Gravity makes a ship float. Gravity pulls harder on the mass of water than the air inside the ship. In this way the water is pulled under the ship, instead of the ship being pulled under the water.

How much salt does it take to make an appl e float?
An apple can actually float in water that is not treated with salt. Adding salt will encourage the apple to float to the top. When you add salt to water, it allows the water to become more dense.
Why tomato float in water?
It has air inside that makes it float.
Do all fruits float in water.?
== Yes because the volume of water displaced by a cherry is enough that the buoyant force of the water is able to counteract the force of the cherry's weight.==
What fruits float in water?
An apple -it's why they're used for apple bobbing.
How much water is nedeed to float a ship?
ships float due to bouyant force how much water they dislace
Why an apple can float on water?
Apples float because the apple is less dense than water. Objects more dense than water sink because even when fully underwater they don't displace enough water to equal their weight.
