Why does a dense object float in the Dead Sea?
An object float in a liquid only when the density of the solid is lower than the density of the liquid.
When the increase in the salinity of seawater result in an increase or decrease in density?
If you compare the density of sea water, and then compared the extremely salty Dead Sea, you will find that the more salt in the water, the higher is the density. Which is why you can float on the Dead Sea while reading a newspaper (which I once saw demonstrated in a documentary). Also, a ship will float lower on a fresh water lake, and float higher on salt water.
What country is separated from Israel by the Dead Sea?
JordanThe Dead sea lays on the border of Israel and Jordan
What makes the Dead Sea paradoxical?
The Dead Sea is paradoxical because it has very high salinity levels, making it one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth. Its high salinity prevents most life forms from thriving in it, hence the name "Dead" Sea. Despite the high salt content, people can float effortlessly on the water due to its density.
Why sea water and freshwater do not have same density?
Sea water typically has a higher density than freshwater because it contains more dissolved salts and minerals. These dissolved substances add mass to the water, increasing its density. Temperature and pressure also play a role in affecting the density of water.
What is the density of dead sea water?
1.24 kg/L
How did dead sea gots its name?
Because of its high density due to salts no life found in it.So it is called dead sea.
Does the temperature of the Dead Sea affect it's saltiness?
no, but it does effect the density
How much salt the dead sea contain?
The Deed Sea has a salt density of 1.24 kg/L.
Is the dead sea saltier than the Great Salt Lake?
the dead sea it is saltier than any thing.
Why do object float in dead sea?
the more salt in water the more bouyant an object becomes the salt makes the more denser therefore objects that are of a lesser density will tend to float on the dead sea
Why is it easy to float in the Dead Sea?
The water in the dead sea has a high concentration of salt, so it has a higher density than normal sea water and a much higher density than regular water. With a higher density the upthrust (force upwards) in the water is larger so it can support more weight than other water.
Why does a dense object float in the Dead Sea?
An object float in a liquid only when the density of the solid is lower than the density of the liquid.
Why is the buoyancy force of dead sea so large?
The extreme salinity - saltiness - means the water there has a higher density than regular sea water. and the higher the density the greater the buoyancy.
Is the dead sea part of the great rift valley?
yes
When the increase in the salinity of seawater result in an increase or decrease in density?

What is common about dead sea and the great salt lake?
Very salty.
