What is more dense than water but floats on water?
a ship
How can you determine whether a soild object is more dense or less dense than water?
You can put a uniform object into water.If it sinks density is higher than water,if floats lesser than water.If you can place anywhere in water,density is equal to water.
How call you tell if a substance is more or less dense then water?
You can determine if a substance is more or less dense than water by comparing their densities. Water has a density of 1 g/cm3 at 4 degrees Celsius. If a substance has a density greater than 1 g/cm3, it is more dense than water. If it has a density less than 1 g/cm3, it is less dense than water.
Icecubes float in water because they are less?
Dense
What happens when a ship sails from seawater to fresh water?
When a ship sails from seawater to fresh water, the buoyancy of the ship increases because fresh water is less dense than seawater. This can cause the ship to ride higher in the water. Additionally, there may be a slight increase in the ship's speed due to the lower density of the fresh water offering less resistance to the hull.
Why filled cylinder with liquid gas sink in water but ship does not?
The air (within the ship) is less dense than water.,
What does density of a ship's cargo have to do with the volume of the cargo the ship can carry?
The Cargo must weigh less than the ship, and although heavy, ships are less dense than water.
Is water less or more dense than water?
Ice is less dense than water
How ship floats on water surface?
The density of the VOLUME of the ship is less than the density of the water it displaces (pushes out of the way). While the steel of a steel hulled ship is denser than water, the steel plus the air enclosed by the steel is less dense.
Why is it that ship floats deeper in fresh water than in the sea water?
A ship floats deeper in fresh water than in sea water because fresh water is less dense than sea water due to a lower concentration of salts and minerals. This lower density causes less buoyant force to be exerted on the ship, making it float deeper in fresh water in order to displace an equivalent volume of the less dense liquid.
What object is less dense than water?
A wooden block can be less dense than water.
Why does a ship sink lower in hot water than in cold?
The ships go lower in hot water because it is less dense than the cold water. The molecules in the cold water are more stationary than in warn water when they are moving faster so it is not as solid.
Is ice less dense or more dense than water?
no
Can you make oil less dense than water?
Oil IS already less dense than water.
What fruit is less dense than water?
Easy, put a fruit in water and if it floats it is less dense than water.
What is more dense than water but floats on water?
a ship
Can ship float on kerosene or not?
No, a ship cannot float on kerosene. Kerosene is less dense than water, so it cannot support the weight of a ship, which is designed to float on water due to its buoyancy.
