What else can I help you with?
Does volume tell you if something will sink or float?
No, volume alone does not determine if something will sink or float. The density of an object compared to the density of the fluid it is placed in determines whether it will sink or float. An object will float if its density is less than the density of the fluid, and it will sink if its density is greater.
If something has low density in it will it sink or float?
If something has a lower density than the substance it is in it will float.
What causes something to sink or float?
What causes it to sink or float is the density. The density of water is 1.0. If the object's density is more 1.0 then it sinks, but if the object's density is less then 1.0 then the object will float.
Do clothes float or sink?
it will float as long as it is not fully covered water.
How do you determine if something will sink or float in water?
To determine if an object will sink or float in water, you compare the density of the object to the density of water. If the object is denser than water, it will sink. If the object is less dense than water, it will float. The principle of buoyancy, which states that an object will float if it displaces an amount of water equal to its weight, also plays a role in determining whether something will sink or float.
Does copper wire sink or float?
A short piece may be supported by the surface tension of water, but a coil of copper wire would sink.
What can float and what can sink?
Hmmm. Canned/Tinned fruit will most certainly sink. Most fruits straight off from the tree will float. However, if the fruits are not ripe, they might sink as they are very dense. A coconut will most certainly float. A packet of biscuits (unopened) will float for a long time. Oatmeal flakes will float for a while, then sink to the bottom. Potatoes and carrots will sink. Lettuce and cabbage will float Regards.

How is buoyancy related to floating?
They are related because buoyancy makes something sink or float.
What is the property of that makes something sink or float?
More or less density of the material compared to the density of the water.
