Calculate the density (mass divided by volume) of your object. If the density is less than that of water - which has a density of about 1000 kg per cubic meter - then it will float; if the density of your object is more, it will sink.
No, volume alone cannot predict whether an object will sink or float. The density of the object compared to the density of the surrounding fluid is a determining factor - objects with a density greater than the fluid will sink, while those with a density less than the fluid will float.
No, you need to consider both the mass and volume of an object in order to predict if it will sink or float. Whether an object sinks or floats depends on its density, which is determined by dividing the mass by the volume. Objects with density greater than the density of water will sink, while objects with density less than the density of water will float.
No, you cannot use mass alone to predict whether an object will sink or float. The density of the object relative to the density of the fluid it is placed in also plays a crucial role in determining whether an object will sink or float. Objects with a density greater than the fluid will sink, while objects with a density less than the fluid will float.
Whether an object sinks or floats is determined by its density in relation to the density of the fluid it's in. If the object is less dense than the fluid, it will float; if it's more dense, it will sink. The volume of an object alone doesn't affect whether it sinks or floats; it's the relationship between its volume and its overall density that determines its buoyancy.
No, volume alone does not determine if an object can float or sink. It depends on the density of the object compared to the density of the fluid it is placed in. If the object is less dense than the fluid, it will float; if it is denser, it will sink.
No, because you can predict if an object will sink or float mostly on density.

No, an object's density relative to the density of the fluid it is placed in determines if it will float or sink. An object will float if its density is less than the density of the fluid, and sink if its density is greater. Volume can influence buoyancy, but it is not the sole factor.
No, volume alone does not determine if something will sink or float. The density of an object compared to the density of the fluid it is placed in determines whether it will sink or float. An object will float if its density is less than the density of the fluid, and it will sink if its density is greater.
No. The key to whether an object floats or sinks is the average density, i.e., mass divided by volume. Also, whether an object will float or not also strictly depends on the surface volume. A piece of tin foil shaped into a boat will float and the same mass of tin foil shaped into a crumpled up ball will not float.
If you know an object's mass and its density, then you can calculate its volume.But mass alone doesn't tell you anything about its volume.
The mass of an object alone is not enough to determine whether it will float in water. You need to know the object's mass and its volume; in other words, its density. A kilogram of solid lead will sink in water. A kilogram of styrofoam will float. If an object is less dense than water it will float; if it is denser it will sink.
No. A very big rock has a great deal of volume- but it also has a great deal of weight. Drop it in water, and it will sink like a........rock. It is the weight per measure of volume that determines density. If the density is less than the liquid, it floats. Greater than the density of the liquid, it sinks.
