Does a body that has drowned float on water?
Initially yes, a body that has drowned may float due to the air trapped in the lungs and digestive system. However, as decomposition begins, the body will eventually sink to the bottom of the water.
Does a drowned body sink?
Yes, a drowned body sinks initially due to the weight of water inhaled, but eventually the gases produced by decomposition cause it to float to the surface again.
Will a fork sink or float?
A fork will sink in water, as it is denser than water. The density of an object determines whether it will sink or float in water.
Does volume tell you if something will sink or float?
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.
Why does some mater float while others do not float at all?
Materials float or sink depending on their density. If an object is less dense than the liquid it is placed in, it will float. If it is more dense, it will sink. The buoyant force acting on the object helps determine whether it will float or sink.

Do clothes float or sink?
it will float as long as it is not fully covered water.
When will a drowned body float?
Generally what happens is that after drowning and floating for a day or so, a body will sink for a few days until gases due to decomposition make it float again. Part of this also depends on the temperature of the water. The warmer the water, the quicker this process happens.In either case, a forensic doctor will be able to determine when the 'drowned body' first became drowned, and you won't get away with your crime.
How long does it take a body to float after drowning?
None. As the human body contains a considerable amount of fat (which is lighter than water) it will float immediately. A more interesting question would be "How long does it take for a drowned body to sink?"
