Because the effect of gravity doesn't really care about density -- all objects are accelerated at the same rate (ignoring wind resistance). Since the cup is feeling wind resistance, but the water isn't (since it's in the cup), the water is experiencing "positive" g-forces, even while falling. So gravity keeps the water in the cup.

Need a sentence for displacement?
After you dropped a rock in a cup of water you noticed some displacement of the water on the counter.
What is heavier bottle of water or cup of water?
A cup of sand, sand sinks in water, thus its heavier.
What cup will freeze water faster glass or a foam?
I assume you mean the water in the cup. Foam is a better insulator than glass, so it should be the water in the glass cup.
Which can transfer more heat 1 cup or boiling water or 1 teapot of boling water?
The cup.
How do you find volume of a irregular object using water displacement?
If you know the approximate volume of the object (½cup shortening, for example),fill a measuring cup with ½cup cold water, and add the object until you reach twice the volume.For example, ½cup water + ½cup shortening = 1 cup → this would mean that you have ½cup of the irregular object (shortening).
When a cup of water is dropped does the water in the cup stays in the cup?
No the water was dropped, not the cup.correct
When a cup water is dropped as the cup Falls the water in the cup stays in the cup?
True
When a cup of water is dropped as the cup falls the water in the cup falls out.?
the answer is true not false
When a cup of water is dropped the water stays in the cup until it hits the ground?
Yes.
When a cup of water is dropped as the cup fall the water in the cup falls out?
There's no reason it should, since the water and the cup fall with the same acceleration.
A cup of water on the moon held upright is dropped does the air makes the cup fall faster than the water?
false

When a cup of water held upright is dropped the water stays in the cup until it hits the ground.?
Yes, they both fall at the same rate because the force of gravity is the same for both the cup and the water. True
When a cup of water, held upright, is dropped on the moon, the air makes the cup fall faster than the water?
False apex
When a cup of water held upright is dropped the water stays in the cup until it hits the ground?
Yes, they both fall at the same rate because the force of gravity is the same for both the cup and the water. True
When a cup of water is dropped as the cup falls the water in the cup falls out?
False, It's because nothing's there holding the water in place.(Im assuming :D)
