What is a sentence using barge?
Fresh bait was being loaded onto the barge.
What do you call a floating mass of of fresh water in the atmosphere?
a cloud
Is elodea plant a floating plant?
Yes, Elodea is an aquatic plant. It is free floating in ponds and lakes of fresh water.
Does salt water affect floating or sinking?
Salt increases the density of water, thus makes it easier to float.I've always had troubles floating while swimming in fresh water, but the difference when swimming in the sea is quite noticeable.There are many notes of people doing experiments with floating eggs with salt water versus fresh water.
What is a floating mass of fresh water in the sea?
An iceberg. A piece of ice that has broken away from an icepack.
How does salt water effect floating?
The salt water has a greater density and the floating is easier.
A barge is 10.0 m wide and 60.0 m long and has vertical sides. It is floating in fresh water A load of 6.00 MN is placed on the barge. How much does its hull sink into the water?
6 MegaNewtons is the weight of (6 x 106 / 9.8) kilograms of water, equivalent toa volume of (6 x 106 / 9.8) liters of water, or (6,000/9.8) cubic meters of water.That's the additional displacement the barge has to achieve as soon as the load drops,in order to float with the additional weight.The added displacement is (10 x 60 x D) cubic meters, where 'D' is the added depth.(10 x 60 x D) = (6 x 103 / 9.8)D = 6 x 103 / (9.8 x 10 x 60)D = 1.02 meters (rounded)
Experiments using salt water and fresh water?
Experiments comparing the densities of salt water and fresh water can demonstrate how salinity affects the buoyancy of objects. Salt water is denser than fresh water due to the dissolved salt, causing objects to float higher in salt water compared to fresh water of the same volume. This phenomenon is demonstrated in experiments such as the floating egg or sinking and floating objects in different types of water.
Why do barges ride higher in the ocean than in the river?
Salt water is denser than fresh water. That means that a barge is more bouyant in salt water; therefore, it floats higher.
What floats better a hard boiled egg or a regular egg?
it should not be floating. fresh eggs done float. expired ones do.
Will a boat sink more in fresh water or salt water?
The boat will sink lower in fresh water. Try floating in the ocean versus your pool. You will see it is easier to stay afloat in salt water.
A rectangular barge 7 m long and 2 m wide floats in fresh water how much deeper does it float when its load is a 400 kg horse?
Consider the following - a submerged object displaces its volume, but a floating object displaces its weight. You also know (or can assume) the load is evenly distributed. So you can take the weight of the load (the horse) and apportion the displacement evenly across the boat. Now you are better prepared to calculate the answer.
