A small object has a larger surface area (in proportion to its weight) than a larger one. Therefore, a small object, like a small drop of water, will fall slower - it has more air resistance (again, in proportion to its weight).
However, it will not float indefinitely; it will simply take longer to get to the ground.

Why tomato float in water?
It has air inside that makes it float.
Does air float on water?
Water has a higher density than air. Anything that is less dense will float. The tube's covering is not enough to make it sink when filled with air. That is also the reason that oil and water don't mix.
How do things float?
things float because they are less denser then the water. second things do not float, the molecules from the water support the molecules from the thing on the water. that is how something heavy can float. it just has to be boyent meaning it is spread out enough so there is more water molecules to hold it up. if you mean in the air it is the same concept.
Why would inflated balloon float on water?
It's the balloon's volume and mass. If a thing has enough volume to compensate for its mass it will float on water, which also explains why steel ships can float, they have a huge hull. Check out the Yamato, a huge battleship of Japan during WWII.
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 do you make an iron float?
the modern iron has a small "shell" to hold the water in it now if its empty and is in water it may float from the air inside the iron
Does a water bottle float on top of water?
An unopened water bottle contains a small pocket of air, allowing it to float. If the water bottle were to have this air removed, its buoyancy would be determined by the purity of the water inside and outside of the plastic.
Why does it rain less in Delhi?
trees are less in delhi and pollution is great. Trees saves and holds water in soil which helps to maintain the temperature of surrounding environment. This helps to cool down the air and the air contains water in it. these small water in the air once gets cool because of cool environment the small drops in air becomes bigger drops and then it rains
Why don't mostsubstance float in air if they float in water?
It is waters greater density than air that allows some substances to float on water.
Why does the egg float in the water?
An egg can float in water if it is not fresh because as the egg ages, it loses moisture and air enters the shell, increasing its buoyancy. This causes the egg to float due to the air pocket inside it.
What will happened to the water vapor in the air if the temperature drops as predicted?
When the temperature drops the less water vapor in the air
Why tomato float in water?
It has air inside that makes it float.
Does fresh egg floats on water?
There is an small air space in eggs. The space is too small to let the egg float in fresh water. An addled egg may have formed enough gas, due to decomposition, to cause the egg to float.
Can balloons float from the air out of your mouth?
Only in water. The air from your mouth is the same density as the air in the room- they will not float in air.
How does a barge float?
It will float because water has more density than air and barges have air in them
Why does a swimming float float?
Because it has air in it. Air weighs less than water therefore air floats.
Does air float in water?
Yes
