In regular coke, more sugar is used as a sweetener also makes it more dense than water and the more dense the substance, it is the more likely to sink.
Aspartame and Saccharin are artificial sweeteners found in Diet Coke. They are at least 200 times sweeter than table sugar. Therefore, a smaller amount of sweetener is used to sweeten the diet coke.
Artificial sweeteners are more concentrated than sugar. You need less weight of the sweetener compared to sugar, to make the product sweet. Because less weight of sweetener is very likely dissolved in diet coke, compared to sugar in regular coke, then the weight of diet coke is less than regular coke for the same unit volume. This is the property called density, weight per unit volume. Water happens to have a density of 62 pounds per cubic foot. It's pretty heavy when you think about it. Because coke is mostly water and anything added to it would make it heavier than water, then both coke and diet coke would both be heavier than water and would make the can want to sink. You must however look at everything together.
It is less dense than regular soda because of the lack of SUGAR.
Copper does not sink in water.. An object with higher density than water sinks while an object with lower density than water floats..
Displaction
B/c the density of mercury is higher than that of glass, while the density of water is lower than that of water.
Some materials sink in water because they are more dense than the water. Others float because they are less dense than water.
Density : if the weight per "cubic foot" is less than water it floats, if more it sinks.
yes it does because of the fizz giving it support but then after a while it sinks.
It is all to do with the density. Water has a density of 1g/cm^3 (1 gram per centimetre cubed). Anything that has a density of less than this will float in water, but anything that has a density greater than this will sink.
The water extracted by the wood log while floating is of equal weight of the wood or more. For this reason, the log of wood floats while a steel needle sinks.
the large object spreads the water out more evenly over it's area because it's large while the small object has less space to do so.
When a subs surfaced, it's a regular ship. It displaces water (it's filled with air NOT WATER).
because a large object displaces more water, whether an object floats or not is a matter of whether the object that's in the water weighs more than the water it pushes away (water is 1 KG/DM^3, or 1000 KG/M^3 a small metal ball will therefore sink, while a large metal boat will float(a small hollow metal ball will also float)---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The mass and volume of an object doesn't matter, its the density
A needle is fully metal whereas a ship is hollow so it floats
