The general rule is that an object will sink if it has a greater density than the liquid in which it is placed.
Ships don't sink because they are more boant then the water they float on. Ships don't sink because they are more boant then the water they float on.
Because they don't sink.
Provided the boats and the ships displace their weight in water without the water coming inboard, they will float and not sink. A boat made of wood is likely to float even when full of water because wood tends to float. It is all to do with displacement and freeboard.
No. Cruise ships and aircraft carriers float very nicely.
Ships float because they displace enough water to create an upward force called buoyancy that is greater than their weight. Coins sink because they are denser than water and therefore displace less water than their own weight.
Big metal ships are designed with a specific shape and structure that displaces enough water to generate buoyancy, which allows them to float. The weight of the ship is spread out over a large enough area, preventing it from sinking. The principle of buoyancy, based on Archimedes' principle, explains why objects float or sink in a fluid.
it will float as long as it is not fully covered water.
because there are electrical curronts and the curronts of the water.
How can you make a chocolate float or sink
what make stuff sink or and float
All pure metal sinks, only by entrapping air in waterproof compartments can you make it (ships) float.
Ships do sink....
