For a certain thing to float, it depends on the mass, weight and the size, . The lighter and smaller a thing is, the more its likely to float. The heavier an object, the more it is likely to stay on the ground. An object can float(or sink) in water, or even in the sky.
The object would float in the middle if it was in water.
The density is not directly relevant. Otherwise, ship made of steel would not float on water.
When its density is less than the fluid in which it is placed
It would float in water.
The lighter a certain object is, the more likely it is to float, if the object is heavier, the object will sink.

Yes, it does depend on the object's density; it depends on the liquid's density, too. An object with a lower density than the liquid it is in will float, while an object with a heavier density than the liquid will sink.
An object would float on a fluid if the density of the object was less than the density of the fluid.
[object Object]
Because the object's weight pushes down on the water itself.That's why if you put in a large object inside,the water pushes itself out.
Density is defined as the mass per unit volume of an object. When the density of an object is high, it is heavier per unit volume. Thus when the density of an object is greater than that of water, it will sink in water. Conversely, when it is lower than that of water, it will float on water.
when a object float it has density
The object is actually lighter on the Sun
That depends on the object's density, not just on its volume. For example, the object you mention would float if it has a mass of less than about 3.7 gramms.
There is no answer to this question as the 3.8 has no units and there is no mention of what the object would be in.
