Water exerts a force on anything that comes into contact with it, this is known as Hydric force. The force always pulls at the object, drawing it down. You will notice that if you put your hand under water, and bring it out slowly, the water seems to cling to your hand as it breaks the surface. This is why. Stones can't pull themselves out of water, so the Hydric force overpowers them and pulls them down.

Is stone lighter than water?
no as it normally sinks down when put in water
Why the stone sinks in water?
it's because the density may be greater than the body of water that is why the stone sink...

A diamond sinks in water. There is only one stone that floats, pumice.
What kind of water sinks?

Why does a a stone sink if you drop it through water?

Why cant stones float in water?
The molecules in a stone are packed together more tightly than the molecules in water-- the stone is more dense than the water is, so the stone sinks.

Why does a stone in water sinks and the wood floats into the water?
Something has neutral bouyancy if it stays in the water wherever you put it, only if it has the same density as the water - there is no cause for it to float or sink than the volume of water it has displaced. If its density is more, as for a stone, it must be heavier than that so it sinks. For wood, it is lighter so water from above drops down as the wood rises.
Why does a stone sink in a liquid?
because the stone has alot of mass so, which the stone sinks to the bottom
What kind of water sinks?
Cold water sinks, hot water rises.
Can objects of the same weight have different buoyancies?
Sure. A small stone can have the same weight as an inflated party balloon. But the balloon has more buoyancy, so it floats on water, while the stone sinks like a stone.
Why does a stone sink when dropped to the bottom of a pond?
Actually, it is science. The stone is more dense than the water therefore it sinks. If it was less dense, it would float. Density is science, not religion.
