Actually it is the change that affect both. We can float because our density is less denser than the density of the water in that place. Salt for example increases the density of water... But when you exhale, you lose air and sink lower because thanks to the air you ware floating a bit more, and so you will sink until a new density of your body is formed with the loss of that air and that density is "lower" than the first one.

lower = deeper, because the difference between the density's isn't as great as it was.

Just imagine an air balloon on water and compare it with a stone on the water.

I hope this was helpful.

How well do different materials sink or float in water?

The sinking or floating of materials in water depends on their density compared to water. Materials with higher density than water will sink, while those with lower density will float. For example, metals like iron sink in water, while plastics and wood float.


If an object floats in water what can you conclude about its density relative to water?

In general the density of the floating object has to be less than that of water. BUt it is not always necessary to be so. Even dense material could be shaped in such a way it could float on water. The main thing is that the weight of the displaced water has to be more than that of the floating object. This is Archimedes principle.

Why is my egg floating in water?

Your egg is floating in water because it is less dense than the water. This means that the egg is lighter than the water, causing it to float instead of sink.
