Does cork sink or float in mercury?
Oil is denser than cork, so the cork would float.
Can you make water light enough to sink a cork?
no
Is cork float or sink in water?
If you dropped a cork in a container of water, the cork will most definitely float. As to the cork is lite, like a feather and it doesnt container much mass.
How To Make A Cork Sink In Water?
To make a cork sink in water, start by gathering a few corks and ensuring they are tightly packed together. Use a waterproof adhesive or hot glue to bond them securely, forming a dense block. Once the glue has set, submerge the cork block in water; if it floats, you can add small weights or attach a net to keep it submerged. Ensure that the cork is sealed to prevent water from entering, which would cause it to float.
Whould an aluminum ball sink or float?
Depends on the medium, and whether the ball is solid or not. A solid ball would float on mercury, sink in water. If it were hollow enough (or filled with, say, cork) it would float in water.
Will a cork sink in oil?
Yes, a cork will sink in oil because cork is less dense than oil. The buoyant force acting on the cork will be greater than its weight, causing it to float.
Does cork sink or float in mercury?
Oil is denser than cork, so the cork would float.
Can you make water light enough to sink a cork?
no
Why do object flout or sink?
If it is heaver than water (or what ever liquid you put it in) it will sink. Lead will sink. A cork will float.
Why does a wooden cork float in water but an iron nail sink?
Wooden cork is less dense than the water and the iron is not.
Will cork sink or float in mercury?
Cork floats on mercury due to its low density compared to mercury. Mercury has a very high density, so most materials, including metals, will sink in it. Cork, being less dense, will float on the surface of mercury.
If a magnet is left to float freely on a cork in which direction will it end up pointing?
no the cork will sink
A cork is floating in salty water As more salt is added to the water to increase its density the cork will?
sink, as the increased salt concentration will make the water more dense. This increased density will reduce the buoyant force acting on the cork, causing it to sink.
How A cork is floating in a saltwater solution As more salt is added to the water to increase its density what happens to the cork?
As more salt is added to the saltwater solution, the density of the water increases. Eventually, the density of the saltwater solution becomes greater than the density of the cork, causing the cork to sink. This is because denser objects tend to sink in less dense fluids.
How far must a cork go below sea level to sink?
about............50m......i think
What happens if a ice cube embedded with a cork melts?
If the ice cube melts, the cork will float on the liquid water that was previously frozen as ice. Cork is less dense than water, so it will float rather than sink.
Would a wooden cork sink in a tank of water?
No, a wooden cork would float in a tank of water because wood is less dense than water. The cork displaces an amount of water equal to its weight, which allows it to float.
