you can either change the volume or the mass
Some of light objects will float and some of light object will sink . For An Example : A coin - it is light , isn't it ? But , it will sink in the water . Because , the density of coin is denser than water . water will be under the oil when they are mixed together in a container . It is because of the density too . How do you know the density of an object or liquids ? First , you should know the mass and volume of the object . After that , MASS DIVIDE VOLUME . You 'll get the density of the object or liquids . The bigger density will be under the smaller density object / liquids when they were mixed together . Of course the air , they are also have their own density .
Yes, adding salt to water increases its density, which can make some objects that would normally sink, like eggs, float. By altering the density of the water, the buoyant force exerted on the object can be increased to make it float.
A floating object has a density less than what it is floating in. If an object has more density than the medium it is placed in, the medium will be unable to hold the object. The object will, therefore, sink.
It is for some substances and not for other substances.
Mass: is the weight of an object. Volume: is the space inside an object. Density: is how much stuff there is in some ammount of space:3 your welcome
Whether an object floats or sinks is a function of its relative density, to the medium in which it is placed. If the object is less dense, it floats, If it is more dense, it sinks. Density = Mass per unit Volume
The density of something is the mass divided by the volume, so if you cut the item in half, it will not change the density at all. Instead, the two halves of the item will have the same density.
It depends on the density of an object. If the density is higher than the density of the liquid, the it sink. If it's less, it floats.
1 I'm not sure that this is true-- at least without some qualifications. If an object's shape is changed in such a way that it will enclose one or more pockets of air, some other substance, or even vacuum, the object's over-all density may change. If no pockets are formed, then the density probably is not changed 2 Density is the ratio of mass to volume.
Density of the object and buoyancy of the water/liquid.
No, you will also need some way to determine the volume of the object.
Objects float or sink in a liquid based on their density compared to the density of the liquid. If the object's density is less than that of the liquid, it will float. If its density is greater, it will sink. Archimedes' principle states that the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid the object displaces.
