Will an object with holes bob up and down in the water or will it sink if it floated before you put holes in it?
It depends on the boyancy of the material and the location of the holes. A ship holed below the waterline will sink. A body board with holes in will float.
Which will float on water a 1-kg block of wood or a 1-kg block of aluminum?
Wood will. A solid block of aluminum will sink. Things float when their density is less than water. There are some woods that sink.
Why do some object sink when placed in water?
That Depends upon a principle Buoyancy.That means that the object placed in water should have density (particles per unit volume) less than that of water to float or else it will sink. Like when we will put a plastic block in water it will sink but when a bottle made of same plastic block is put in water it floats because it have comparatively lower density to the block due to air.
Will a block of ebony wood float in water?
a block of ebony will sink in water because it's density is 1.2 g/cm3 and the water's density is 1g/cm3
Why does a perspex block sink in fresh water but floats in salty water?
salty water is more dense than fresh
Why aren't sink holes found in areas where a sandstone is found at the surface?
There aren't any sink holes where a sandstone is found at the surface because sink holes are used for water to go through it and not other stuff or it will block water from going through. Anyway there aren't any on the ground because it doesn't belong there.
If a block of ice has the density of 0.97gcm3 how much of it will sink below the water?
97% will sink below the water

What is mainly responsible for sink holes?
Water flow, and changing water table levels.
Which will float on water a 1-kg block of wood or a 1-kg block of aluminum?
Wood will. A solid block of aluminum will sink. Things float when their density is less than water. There are some woods that sink.
What is the relasionship between carbon deoxied water limestone and sink holes?
Limestone
What are two holes on the underside of your pedestal sink basin and why is water coming out of them?
They are "casting" holes left from the manufacturing process. The source of water would have to be either from the overflow entrance, a crack or pin-hole in the sink basin, or a faulty or improperly installed p.o. ( vertical drain pipe from lav to p-trap).
How many major sink holes in Georgia?
Is Georgia proneto sink holes
Will silver float or sink in water?
no gold does not float in water because it has a density higher than 1 which is the density for water. Therefore, it sinks.rofl

Block A and Block B are each in a beaker with water. Why does Block A sink and Block B float?
Maybe because Block A is heavy and Block B is light it depends on the weight.
