What else can I help you with?
When an object floats what does the object have?
when a object float it has density
What determains if an object floats or sinks?
The Density.
When you compare the density of water or air with another object how can you tell which has the lower or higher density?
-- If the object floats in water, then its density is less than the density of water. -- If the object sinks in water, then its density is more than the density of water. -- If the object floats in air, then its density is less than the density of air. -- If the object sinks in air, then its density is less than the density of air.
What part on an object will determine whether it floats?
it is not a part it is the bouancy of the material
An object that floats on the surface of water?
the amount of density
Which object weighs more a can that floats or a can that sinks?
It is impossible to tell; whether an object floats or sinks depends on its density, not on its weight.
How do you know the density of an object if it floats on water?
If an object floats on water, it means its density is less than that of water. You can calculate the density of the object by comparing its weight to its volume, using the formula density = mass/volume. The density of water is about 1 g/cm^3, so if the object floats on water, its density will be less than 1 g/cm^3.
What will happen to an object placed in water if the object's density is less than the density of water?
We both know it floats
Which property of an object will never affect whether the object sinks or floats?
The color or surface texture of an object will never affect whether it sinks or floats. The buoyancy of an object is dependent on its density compared to the density of the fluid it is placed in.
How does the density of an object tell you if it will sink or float?
If the object's density is greater than the density of the fluid you put it in, then it sinks. If less, then it floats in that fluid.
How does an object float?
An object floats when the objects density is LESS than the liquid your using.
WHAT happens to a solid object with a density that is less than the density of water when it is placed in water?
It floats
