The mass of an object (or its weight) has nothing to do with its ability to float ...
consider feathers, rocks, people, and battleships.
The determining quantity is the object's density, which is the ratio of its mass
to its volume.
It is not just the weight matter in floatation or sinking.The shape,surface area or the base liquid that matters.For eg. a very flat sheat of iron weighing 85gm will float in water but a bead(ball )of iron weighing 85gm will sink.On the other hand an iron bead of 85gm will float in mercury.
The Density of the object as long as its .99 grams then it will float because the object has to have less density than water in order to rise above the water.
An object that weighs 0.85 grams or ml will float in tap water because the density of tap water is about 1 g/ml. The object is less dense than the water, so it will displace water equal to its weight and float.
No, an object that has a mass of 3.68 grams per cubic centimeter will not float on water. This density is greater than that of water, which has a density of 1 gram per cubic centimeter, so the object will sink in water.
The object will sink in water, as the density of water is 1 gram per cubic centimeter. Since the object's density is less than that of water, it will not displace enough water to float.
It could, if it contained enough air. To float on water, you would need about 1 liter of air for every kilogram you want to keep afloat.
No, 1kg object will sink in water because it is heavier than the water it displaces, causing it to have a greater density than water. Objects float when they have a lower density than the fluid they are placed in.
An object with a density of 0.7 g/cm^3 will float in water because the density of water is approximately 1 g/cm^3, making the object less dense than the water. Objects with a lower density than water will float, while objects with a higher density will sink.
The displaced water should also weigh 450 N.
In order for an object to float on water, its overall density must be less than 1 g/cc.That goes for a shirt-button, a super-tanker, or an iceberg the size of Texas. The object's massmakes no difference.
if its in water and it has less grams per cm cubed than the water does then it will float and vicevesa
When a ball weighing 30N displaces an amount of water weighing 30N, it means the ball experiences a buoyant force equal to its weight, allowing it to float in the water without sinking. This occurs when an object's weight is balanced by the upward force exerted by the fluid it displaces, following Archimedes' principle.
