Knowing only its mass, you can't tell.
If every object with LESS than 25 grams of mass sank, then leaves couldn't float.
If every object with MORE than 25 grams of mass sank, then ships, ducks, and icebergs couldn't float.
You also have to know the object's volume:
If this object's volume is more than 25 cc, then its density is less than 1, and it will float.
If this object's volume is less than 25 cc, then its density is more than 1, and it will sink.
No, an object that has a mass of 3.68 grams per cubic centimeter will not float on water. This density is greater than that of water, which has a density of 1 gram per cubic centimeter, so the object will sink in water.
Subtract the mass of the beaker from the total weight.
For an object to float, the mass of the water displaced must be equal to the mass of the object. This is known as Archimedes' principle, which states that the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. When these two masses are equal, the object will float.
The independent variable in a float or sink experiment would typically be the object's density or mass, which can be manipulated and varied by the researcher. By changing the density or mass of the object being tested, you can observe how it influences whether the object will float or sink in a liquid.
If these measurements are made in cubic cemtimeters (volume) and grams (mass) this is true. But, if mass is from the english system, (not really pounds, it is slugs, but who knows what a slug is?) and the volume is cubic feet, this is not true.
It will float.
No, an object that has a mass of 3.68 grams per cubic centimeter will not float on water. This density is greater than that of water, which has a density of 1 gram per cubic centimeter, so the object will sink in water.
That would be 11 grams.
The mass of an object (or its weight) has nothing to do with its ability to float ...consider feathers, rocks, people, and battleships.The determining quantity is the object's density, which is the ratio of its massto its volume.
Subtract the mass of the beaker from the total weight.
That depends on the object's density, not just on its volume. For example, the object you mention would float if it has a mass of less than about 3.7 gramms.
121.2 grams
When the displaced fluid has a mass equal or greater than the mass of an object placed in the fluid, the object will float.
For an object to float, the mass of the water displaced must be equal to the mass of the object. This is known as Archimedes' principle, which states that the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. When these two masses are equal, the object will float.
In order to find if it will float, you have to divide mass by volume (pg 18 in your textbook). 65 divided by 77 = 0.8441558. Now, if the object is less than 1.0g/cm3 (pg 19), it means it will float. Answer: Yes, it will float. Note: LOL I was searching for the answer too, hoping someone would answer your quetion, but no no one did. So I gave up and found it by myself. Oh Lol.
Density is calculated as Mass / Volume. Therefore for an object that has a mass of 350 grams and a volume of 95 cm^3, the density would be 3.684 g/cm^3. Water has an estimated 1g/cm^3 density, therefore the density of this object is greater than that of water and would sink.
The independent variable in a float or sink experiment would typically be the object's density or mass, which can be manipulated and varied by the researcher. By changing the density or mass of the object being tested, you can observe how it influences whether the object will float or sink in a liquid.
