It will sink in the fluid. It will sink in the fluid.
Two ways to do this: 1) Floating the less dense object on the more dense liquid. To verify the Archimedes principle you need to show that the mass of the liquid displaced by the less dense object is equal to the mass of the less dense object. To do this you need to have a way to determine the mass of the displaced liquid. If the liquid is in a container filled to the brim, then when you place the less dense object in it, the displaced liquid will spill out over the edges of the container. If you can collect and weight that liquid, then you can compare its weight to the weight of the less dense object - they should match. Alternatively, you can find a way to measure the volume of the displaced liquid and calculate the mass from the volume and density of the displaced liquid. 2) Immerse the object completely in the liquid and measure the force required to keep it submerged. This one is more complicated and difficult to execute and measure. The force required to keep the less dense object submerged should be the difference between the weight of the object (when it is not in the liquid) and the weight of the displaced liquid.
You can determine if a solid object is more or less dense than water by comparing their densities. If the density of the object is greater than the density of water (1 g/cm^3), then the object will sink in water. If the density of the object is less than the density of water, then it will float.
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.
The tendency of a less dense substance to float in a more dense liquid is called buoyancy. Acids are substances that form hydronium ions when dissolved in water.
No. Several liquids, including gasoline, oil and alcohol, are less dense.
Well, if the object is more dense than the liquid, it will sink. If the object is less dense than the liquid, it will float. For example, a kernel is more dense than water, so it sinks, but the kernel is less dense than corn syrup, so it will float.
An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.
An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.
When an object is placed in a less dense liquid or gas, it will experience a buoyant force acting against gravity. If the object's density is greater than that of the surrounding medium, it will sink; if the object's density is less, it will float. The object will displace a volume of the medium equal to its own volume.
Comparing the density of an object with that of a liquid will determine whether the object will float or sink in the liquid. If the object is less dense than the liquid, it will float; if it is more dense, it will sink.
You can use the density of an object to predict whether it will float or sink by comparing the density of the object to the density of the fluid it is placed in. If the object is less dense than the fluid, it will float. If the object is more dense than the fluid, it will sink.
An object will float in a liquid when the density of the liquid is higher than that of the object or when equal. That is to say Upthrust= or >weight of the object
the ability of an object to float on water. If the object's density is greater than 1 it will sink. If the object's density is less than 1 it will float.
To predict whether an object will sink or float in a liquid, you must first examine the densities of both the object and the liquid. If the object is more dense than the liquid, it will sink. If the object is less dense than the liquid, it will float. For example, the density of water is approximately 1g/ cm3. The density of ice is approximately 0.92 g/ cm3. That is why when water freezes, the ice floats on the top rather than sinking to the bottom.

Ice is a solid less dense than the liquid
If an object or liquid is is less dense than the liquid in which it floats, that's the reason why it floats, because whatever is less dense floats. If you meant to ask why something MORE dense can float in something LESS dense, one answer is surface tension.
