Even though a brick weighs less in a metal hull ship a brick in the bathtub sinks but a metal hull ship in the ocean floats why?
It floats because the shape of the hull with a large cavity inside displacing the water counteracts the weight of the metal hull. The water displacement counteracts the force of gravity, spreading the weight of the boat out across a larger surface area with a great tensile strength, resisting the force of gravity.
What else can I help you with?
Even though a brick weighs less than a metal-hull ship a brick in a bathtub sinks but a metal-hull ship in the ocean floats why?
This is due to the principle of buoyancy, which is determined by the density of the object compared to the fluid it's in. A brick is more dense than water, so it sinks. However, a metal-hull ship is designed to displace enough water to create buoyant force greater than its weight, allowing it to float.
