Why do boats float better in salt water rather than fresh water?
flotation is due to the fact the boat is less dense than the water, salty water is more dense than normal water. Consequently things can be heavier or more dense and still be less dense than water aka they float.
How do objects float differently in salt water than in fresh water?
Objects float higher in salt water compared to fresh water because salt water is denser than fresh water. The higher density of salt water provides more buoyant force, causing objects to float higher. Additionally, salt water can also affect the rate at which objects sink or float due to changes in the water's viscosity and surface tension.
Do boats float better on fresh water or salt water?
The floating or sinking of an object depends on the upthrust force the water exerts on the object. By Archmides' principle, Upthrust Force = (Density of Liquid) * (Volume of Liquid Displaced by the object) therefore the upthrust force depends on the density of the liquid, and as salt water has a larger density than fresh water, boats should float better on salt water.
If you float in salt water what will you do in fresh water?
If you just barely float in salt water, you will sink in fresh water.
What makes boats float on water?
Bouyancy is what makes a boat float
What do you use canal boats for?
To float in the water.
What can float in salt water but sink in fresh water?
i think it is ppeople because they float in salt water and sink in fresh water.
Is it eaiser to float in salt water than fresh water?
Yes, it is easier to float in salt water than in fresh water due to salt water's higher density. The salt content in the water increases its buoyancy, making it easier for objects and people to float on the surface.
Air propulsion Motor Boats?
it is a boat that can float in water
What things carry us that float on water?
Boats or ships
What force allows boats to float?
Buoyancy is the force that allows boats to float. When a boat displaces water, it experiences an upward force equal to the weight of the water it displaces, keeping it afloat.
Is it easier to float in salt water or fresh water?
It is definitely easier yo float in salt water.
