What else can I help you with?
Which type of lizard can run across water without sinking?
Basalisk
An insect is able to walk across the surface of a pond without sinking because of the?
Insects are able to walk across bodies of water without sinking because of their weight. Insects weigh literally nothing.
How can a fly stand on a puddle without sinking?
there are micro hairs that are almost water proof
The water strider is an insect that skates across the water without sinking The tips of its feet should be coated with molecules that are?
Hydrophobic, meaning they repel water, which helps the water strider stay afloat. This allows the insect to utilize surface tension to stay on top of the water while moving.
How do submarines stay in the water without sinking or submerging?
they are neutrally buoyant. they have ballast tanks to achieve this
How fast can a basilisk lizard run on land?
fast enough to run on water without sinking.
Why is an insect able to walk across the surface of a pond without sinking?
Insects that have the ability to walk on water have feet that are spread very far apart. This allows their weight to be distributed over a larger area and stops them from breaking the surface tension of water molecules sticking together.
What is float?
not iron
Why do things dissolves in water?
They dissolve by sinking in to the water.
How many pounds can 1 water bottle hold without sinking?
The weight a water bottle can hold without sinking depends on its size and buoyancy. A standard 16.9-ounce (500 mL) plastic water bottle can typically hold about 1 pound (approximately 0.45 kg) of additional weight before it risks sinking. However, this can vary based on the bottle's design, material, and whether it has any air trapped inside. Always consider the specific bottle's characteristics for an accurate assessment.
What will happen if an object that is the same density of water is placed in it?
If an object with the same density as water is placed in water, it will remain suspended at the same level without sinking or floating. This is known as neutral buoyancy, where the object's weight is equal to the water's buoyant force, resulting in it neither sinking nor floating.
An insect is able to walk on water because of the property known as?
surface tension. This property is caused by the cohesive forces between water molecules, which allow the insect to stay on the water's surface without sinking.
