Debbie was doing a science lab and she was instructed to decide whether a piece of plastic would float or sink without actually putting the plastic in the water. How could she do this?
Debbie can determine whether the piece of plastic will float or sink by comparing its density to that of water. If the density of the plastic is less than that of water (1 gram per cubic centimeter), it will float; if it is greater, it will sink. She can also refer to the material's known properties, as most types of plastic generally have a density less than water, indicating they typically float.
Would a marble or a plastic dice sink faster in water?
A plastic dice would likely sink faster in water than a marble. This is because plastic is denser than water, while marbles are often made of glass which is less dense than water.
