Why does a cork only bounce up and down in water?

A cork bounces up and down in water because the cork and water have different densities, causing the cork to float. When you push the cork down, it displaces water and moves back up due to buoyancy. The cork then bounces up and down until it settles at a point where its weight is equal to the buoyant force acting on it.
