higher

Because... temperature affects the level as warm water provides less bouyancy, being less dense than cold water. The salinity of water also affects the level, fresh water being less dense than salty water

Will ships float lower or higher in tropical water?

Ships will float higher in tropical waters because as the density of a fluid decreases with a rise in temperature, so does the buoyant force that the fluid exerts on an immersed object. The buoyant force decreases because the displaced fluid weighs less at a higher temperature.


Do boats float higher or lower in tropical waters?

higher as when the temprature rises the density of the water/liquid decreases, so does the buoyant force that the water/liquid exerts on an object such as a boat or vessel


Why do you tend to float lower in the water when you exhale?

You tend to float lower in the water when you exhale because you are getting rid of air. This air is buoyant and helped you to float higher.


Is the air inside balloon higher or lower then the outside air?

lower so it can float. guessing.


Why does a icebreg float?

water is the only substance on earth where its density is HIGHER when liquid, and LOWER when solid. a substance will float on top of another if its density is lower than the other substance. so because the ice has a LOWER density it will float on top of the water


Why do some item float higher on the water than other?

It depends on the density on the item. The density of water is 1.0 so if the density of the item is lower then that it will float, if the density is greater then that, then the item will sink.


How can you use density to determine if an object will sink or float a fluid?

If the density of an object is lower than water then it will float, if the density is higher it will sink.


Does crystal float?

It depends on the type of crystal. Some crystals have a density higher than water and will sink, while others have a lower density and will float.


Should a material have a higher or lower density to float in water?

A material needs a lower density than water to float in water. Ships float in water because their average density is lower than water. The average density includes the steel hull and the air inside the hull.


How is density related to floatation?

If an object has lower density than the fluid then it will float. If it has higher density then it will sink.


What causes certain liquids to float above others?

the density of each of the fats. the higher density, the lower it will be in a mixture


Will something with a lower density float on something with a higher density?

A liquid with a higher density than 1g/cm3 (one gram per cubic centimeter) (the density of water) will sink in water.
