Why do iron bob float in mercury?
the iron bob floats in mercury because it density is less than mercurys density
If iron floats in Mercury what does that mean?
It means that mercury is denser than iron.
Why iron ball floats on mercury?
An iron ball floats on mercury because mercury is much denser than iron. The buoyant force acting on the iron ball due to the displacement of mercury is greater than the gravitational force pulling it downward, causing it to float.
Why iron nail floats on mercury but sinks on water.?
Iron has a higher density than water, so it sinks in water; but is less dense than mercury so it floats.
Do an object that floats in water will sink in mercury?
If an object floats in water it will also float in the much denser mercury
What do you call a kid who floats?

What liquid do rocks float in?
Which rock? Any liquid that is dense enough will support a rock; the most common would likely be mercury, in which even iron floats.
Why will a block of iron float in mercury and sink in water?
A block of iron will float in mercury due to the higher density of iron compared to mercury. In water, the iron block will sink because the density of iron is higher than that of water. The buoyant force acting on the iron block is determined by the density of the surrounding fluid.
Why does iron float in a pool of mercury while gold sinks?
It is function of the density of the three metals. The density of iron is less than that of mercury, but the density of gold is greater. Density of iron: 7.86 g/cm3 Density of mercury: 13.53 g/cm3 Density of gold: 19.3 g/cm3 Anything more dense than a liquid will sink in that liquid, and anything less dense will float. For comparison, the density of water is only 1 g/cm3, so all three would sink in a pool of water. Styrofoam for instance is less dense than water and so it floats in water.
How many aliens are on Mercury?
3: Bob, Bob, and Bobob
Does cork sink or float in mercury?
Oil is denser than cork, so the cork would float.
