What else can I help you with?
Will a density of 2.7 float?
Is this the density of a liquid or an object? If this is the density of a liquid and you want to make an object float, than the density of the object should be less than 2.7. If this is the density of an object you are trying to make float, than the density of the liquid should be greater than 2.7.
What is true of the mass and volume of the floating object?
Objects that are less dense than the environment in which they are immersed will float, unless they are tethered.
What happens when an object is dropped into a beaker containing a liquid and then the object drops to the bottom of the beaker?
The density of the object is at least equal to, and possibly greater than, the density of the liquid in the beaker.
Determines if an object will float or sink in a fluid?
Density. An object will float in a substance if its density is less than the density of the substance. The density of water is 1 kg /L or 1 g/ cm3. Anything with a density less than this will float.
How does buoyancy affect the mass of an object?
If the average density of an object is less than water (1.0 g per mL) it will float in water, and if it is more than 1.0g/mL it will sink in water. So the lower the density, the greater the buoyancy.
An object in a fluid will sink if the?
density of the object is greater than the density of the fluid.
What is the density on fluid of an object sinking?
The density of the fluid affects whether an object will sink or float. An object will sink in a fluid if its density is greater than the density of the fluid. If the object's density is less than the fluid's density, it will float.
What is the relationship between the density of the object and the density of the fluid have to be?
An object will float in a fluid if its density is less than the fluid's density. If the object's density is greater than the fluid's density, the object will sink. If the object's density is equal to the fluid's density, it will be suspended at a specific depth.
What does the density have to be greater than for an object to float?
It has to be greater than the density of the fluid in which it is to be floated.
Does the tendency for an object to sink or float have to do with the object's density?
Yes. The object will sink if its density is greater than the fluid it is placed in.
An objects density must be greater than what for the object to float?
An object's density must be less than the density of water,in order for the object to float.
How does the density of an floting on a compare to the desity of the fluid?
An object floats on a fluid when its density is less than the density of the fluid. This is due to buoyancy, the upward force exerted by a fluid on an object. If the object's density is equal to or greater than the fluid's density, it will sink.
What is buoyancy and how is it affected by density?
Buoyancy is the factor of things that float or sink. Density is related because if the object has more density than water, it will sink. But, if it has less density than water, the object will float.
An object in a fluid will float if?
the buoyant force acting on the object is greater than its weight. This occurs when the density of the object is less than the density of the fluid it is submerged in.
Determines wether an object will sink or float in a fluid?
Whether an object will sink or float in a fluid depends on the object's density compared to the density of the fluid. If the object's density is greater than the fluid's, it will sink. If the object's density is less than the fluid's, it will float. Objects with a density equal to the fluid will be neutrally buoyant, neither sinking nor floating.
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.
What is the density of object compared to the density fluid when it sinks?
The density of an object that sinks is greater than the density of the liquid in which it sinks.
