What else can I help you with?
A marble was drooped into a glass of waterhow do you know the marble is more dense than water?
If the marble sinks in water, it is more dense than water. Objects that are denser than water will sink, while objects with lower density will float.
What objects float in water?
objects that are less dense float to the top.
Do particles make objects denser?
Particles do make objects denser than they normally may be. For example, if you add particles of salt to water, the water will become more dense. Alternately, if you filter impurities out of water it will become less dense.
Does more dense or less dense objects settle faster?
More dense objects settle faster than less dense objects. This is because denser objects have more mass and therefore experience a greater force of gravity pulling them downward, causing them to settle more quickly than less dense objects.
How can you determine whether a solid object is more or less dense than water?
You can determine if a solid object is more or less dense than water by comparing their densities. If the density of the object is greater than the density of water (1 g/cm^3), then the object will sink in water. If the density of the object is less than the density of water, then it will float.
Is a pencil dencer then water?
no, a pencil will float therefore it is less dense than water(ticonderoga #2 pencil was used)no pencils were harmed in the execution of this experiment
What is the difference between an objects that float and the objects thasink in water?
Objects that float in water are less dense than water, so they displace enough water to counteract the force of gravity pulling them down. Objects that sink are denser than water and displace less water than their weight, causing them to be pulled down by gravity.
Why oil is dencer than water?
Oil is less dense than water because its molecules are larger and do not pack as tightly together as the molecules in water. This lower density causes oil to float on top of water when the two are mixed together.
What is dencer than water?
Many. One Example is a cork
What can you infer about objeacts that sink or float in water?
Objects that Float in water are less dense than water. Objects that sink are more dense than water. More clearly stated Objects that sink displace less water than their weight of equal measure.
Why do ships made of steel float instead of of sinking since steel is dencer than water?
I's not sink because see water is less dense than the steel so the ship will not sink instead of floating.
How can you predict whether objects will float or sink?
The density of water is 1 g/cm cubed, and objects more dense that water will sink, while objects less dense than water will float. An object will sink if it weighs more than the water it pushes away, and an object will float if it weighs less than the water it pushes away. The Greek mathematician Archimedes discovered that the amount of water displaced by an object depends on the mass of that object. Mass is the amount of matter in a substance, and dense objects have more mass than less dense objects. Dense objects that do not displace much water will sink, while less dense objects that displace a lot of water will float.
Are objects that sink more dense than water?
Yes.
How can you determine whether a solid is less or more dense than water?
Gauge its buoyancy. Put it in the water. objects that are less dense will float while objects that are more dense sink.
What is dencer than motor oil?
Anything it floats on - water, for example.
What are the objects that can float on water?
Any object that is less dense than water will float.
Do less dense things float in water?
Yes, less dense objects float in water because they are lighter than the water they displace.
