It undergoes imbibition if it is hydrophilic in nature but if its not it simply looks bigger due to refraction of light.and its refracted to our eyes,

Does an object become heavier when placed in water?

No. It becomes lighter as the water exerts an upthrust on the object according to the archmides' principle. Thus the reaction force ( or the weight ) of an object becomes less.


What is a floating wreckage?

Anything that is found on the water that was a part of a bigger object.


Is there any material that becomes heavier when submerged in water and lighter when it is taken out?

A porous object absorb water and is heavier. In air the water is evaporated and the object become lighter.


Bigger object like a rock?

A boulder is a bigger object that is like a rock.


What happens when you move the torch closer to an object?

When you move a torch closer to an object, the object will appear brighter as more light is reflected off of it. The light will illuminate more details and shadows of the object, making it easier to see. The intensity of the light hitting the object will increase, enhancing its visibility.


Why do things look bigger when you look at it through water?

water bends or refracts light. also the shape and type of material of the container may make the object look bigger E.G some types of glass act as magnifying glasses or rounded containers may do the same.


Why does the floating or sinking change when an object gets bigger?

When an object gets bigger, its volume and weight increase more than its surface area. This affects the object's buoyancy: larger objects displace more water, making them more likely to float, whereas smaller objects may sink due to their higher density relative to the displaced water.


What happens when volume changes?

Yes under constant pressure, with a given mass, volume changes during the change of state. When steam condenses, its volume is reduced. But, when water changes into ice, its volume becomes more. This is known to be anomalous expansion of water. Where as in other cases, when the liquid form gets changed into solid form, the volume is reduced.


If electrons are removed from an object is the object positively or negatively charged?

If electrons leave an object it becomes positive. If an object gains electrons it becomes positive. If it has the same types of charges with the same amount it becomes neutral.


What is an object that orbits another bigger object?

the answer is a sattelite


How do you find the volume of an object bigger than the graduated cylinder?

You can find the volume of an object bigger than the graduated cylinder by using the displacement method using a beaker. The object also can be measured with a rules length, width, and height.


When the number of references to an object becomes that object is marked for garbage collection?

When the object is no longer referenced anywhere else in your program, then the object becomes marked for garbage collection.
