What else can I help you with?
What is inside orange juice that makes the ice cube float longer?
acid from the orange juice has high density compared to the ice cube
Will the wooden cube float in water?
It depends on the density of the wood. If the wood is less dense than water, the cube will float. If the wood is more dense than water, the cube will sink.
Will a silver cube float in liquid silver?
Only if it is less dense than the liquid silver, yes. However if both densities of the silver cube and the liquid silver are equal, or the same as each other. Then the silver cube will stay where ever you leave it in the liquid silver.
Why doesn't float an ice cube float in air?
An ice cube will not float in air because air has a lower density than ice, making it less buoyant. Ice is less dense than water, which allows it to float in water due to buoyancy. In air, the buoyant force is not strong enough to support the weight of the ice cube, so it will not float.
Which ice cube will sink the one in water or hydrogen peroxide?
an ice cube cannot sink in water because its density is less than that of water. this is because of the air bubbles trapped inside; that make the ice cube less dense than water.
What happens if a ice cube embedded with a cork melts?
If the ice cube melts, the cork will float on the liquid water that was previously frozen as ice. Cork is less dense than water, so it will float rather than sink.
Why does only light things float in salt water?
Whether things float or sink this depend only on the density , the density of the salt water is aprox. 1030 kilogram per meter cube so if you but things have density less than that they will float , things with higher density sink.
Does nickel float?
No, nickel does not float in water because it has a higher density than water. Any object with a higher density than water will sink.
In which liquids will an ice cube float?
in water or anything which is denser than ice
Would ice float higher in water or corn syrup?
Firstly there is no such thing as floating higher; something either floats or it doesn't. Buoyancy (pronounced boy-an-see) on the other hand, describes the ability or tendency of an object to float in a liquid. Objects float in a liquid when they are less dense than the liquid. For example an ice cube will float in both water and corn syrup because it is less dense than both. The ice cube will have greater buoyancy in corn syrup because corn syrup is more dense than water.
An ice cube floats in top water if it is put in the sea water will it float or lower in the water?
The ice cube will float higher in sea water than it will in pure water (more of it will be above the water level). This is because the salt in sea water makes it more dense than pure water, meaning that less water must be displaced to account for the mass of the ice.
Do cubes float better in water than spheres?
No, cubes do not float better in water than spheres. Objects float based on their density and volume, not their shape. If a cube and a sphere have the same density and volume, they will float in water in the same manner.
