An object most likely sink in water if it has low density?
The lower an objects density the less likely it is to sink in water. Objects with a higher density than water will sink if placed in it while objects with a lower density than water will float if placed in it.
Why objects float or sink when placed on surface of water?
Because of the comparative density. If the objects density is greater than water it will sink, if less then it will float.
How do objects sink or float in water?
objects with higher density than water sink, ones with a lower density float
Why do some objects float when placed in a container filled with a liquid while other sink?
It all depends on the density of the object. If an object was less dense than water, then it will float. If an object is more dense than water, then it will sink.
Will objects with densities higher than water sink or float?
Objects with higher densities than water will sink in water. What they do in other substances depends on the densities of those substances.
An object most likely sink in water if it has low density?
The lower an objects density the less likely it is to sink in water. Objects with a higher density than water will sink if placed in it while objects with a lower density than water will float if placed in it.
Why objects float or sink when placed on surface of water?
Because of the comparative density. If the objects density is greater than water it will sink, if less then it will float.
Why the objects sink?
Objects sink when the density of the object is more than that of the water.
Why do heavy objects sink in water?
Objects sink in water because they are denser than water, not necessarily because they are heavier.
What can sink in water?
heavy objects than water can sink in water
Does calcium sink when placed in water?
Yes, calcium does sink in water
How do objects sink or float in water?
objects with higher density than water sink, ones with a lower density float
Objects sink in water because they are heavy true of false?
False. Objects sink in water because they are more dense than water.
What objects that sink in water?
the objects whose density is more than that of fluid sink in the liquid
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 some objects float when placed in a container filled with a liquid while other sink?
It all depends on the density of the object. If an object was less dense than water, then it will float. If an object is more dense than water, then it will sink.
Why do some objects sink when placed water?
That Depends upon a principle Buoyancy.That means that the object placed in water should have density (particles per unit volume) less than that of water to float or else it will sink. Like when we will put a plastic block in water it will sink but when a bottle made of same plastic block is put in water it floats because it have comparatively lower density to the block due to air.
