Why do boats float better in salt water rather than fresh water?
Boats float better in salt water because salt water is denser than fresh water. The higher salinity of salt water increases the buoyant force that supports the boat, making it easier for the boat to float. In comparison, fresh water has a lower density, resulting in less buoyancy and potentially making it more difficult for boats to float.
Can an egg float better with salt?
An egg will sink in fresh water. Salt water is denser than fresh water, which allows the egg to float.
What is the difference in salinity between salt water and fresh water environment?
To be blunt, salt water has a lot more salinity than fresh water.
Why do ships sink more in fresh water than in salt water in respect to freeboard?
It is because the fresh water has less density compared to that of salt water.
What is difference between density of salty water and normal water?
Salt water is a lighter density than fresh. The difference depends on the salinity of the water. This differs all over the world in different parts of the oceans and in salt water lakes.
Why does a perspex block sink in fresh water but floats in salty water?
salty water is more dense than fresh
Is salty water more dense that salty water?
Salt water is more dense than fresh water. A ship would float higher at sea, and lower on a fresh water inland lake.
Is salty water more sense than cold water or more dense than less salty water?
Salt water is denser than fresh water. A ship will float higher on the oceans, and float lower on a fresh water inland lake.
Do baltic sea has the highest salinity?
The Baltic Sea is known as Brackish, that is a little more salty than fresh water, but not as salty as sea water
Was there ever more fresh water than salt water?
no there was not. At the moment approximately 97% of water on Earth is salty, leaving only 3% fresh
Why does salty water evaporates faster than fresh water?
Fresh water is evaporated faster.
Why do most fishes prefer fresh water than salty water?
it denpents were the fish is from the ocean or fresh water lakes
Why a perspex block sinks in fresh water but will float in very salty water?
salt water is denser than fresh water so it will produce more upthrust due to Archimedes principle
Is a lake salty or freshwater?
Most lakes are fresh water, though some lakes are saline. The Great Salt Lake in Utah is saltier than the ocean, as is Salton Sea in southern California and the Dead Sea in the middle east (the Dead Sea is nearly ten times more salty than the ocean).
What is the salt content of the Baltic sea?
The Baltic Sea is known as Brackish, that is, a little more salty than fresh water, but not as salty as sea water
Is salty water more or less dense than less salty water?
less
Why is it easier to float in salty water tahn in flesh water?
It's easier to float in salty water because the water is not dense compared to fresh water. No its not! The other way around! The salt water is MORE dense than that of fresh water, so you float easier: there are more particles in that given space. :)
