What is the term for the scientific explanation of how things float?
The term for the scientific explanation of how things float is "buoyancy."
Do things float in alcohol?
Yes. For every fluid, there are things that float in it ... they just have to be things that are less dense than the fluid. That's how stones float in mercury, logs float in water, and hot balloons float in air.
How does sparkling water make things float?
Sparkling water contains carbon dioxide gas that creates bubbles. These bubbles attach to objects, making them buoyant and causing them to float. The bubbles decrease the density of the water, allowing objects to float more easily.
Why does air make things float?
The only things that "float" in air, are things that are lighter than air, and this is because they displace a quantity of air that weighs more than the thing that is floating. This is also true of things that float in water or any other fluid. As for heavier-than-air things that "float" (fly), these are kept aloft by the motion of air, or by the motion of the thing through the air, which amounts to the same thing. In either case, air is passing the flying thing (for instance, an airplane wing) above and below it, creating low pressure above and high pressure below, thereby lifting the thing off the ground. This works only for things that are aerodynamically correct, and these are called airfoils - an airplane wing, a helicopter rotor and a kite are common examples.
Do small things float?
Whether small things float or not depends on their density. If the density of an object is less than the density of the fluid it is placed in (such as water), then it will float. However, if the density of the object is greater than the density of the fluid, it will sink.
Does sea salt make things float?
Yes any salt can make things float
How do you make things float?
You can't make things float, things float by it's self's it's density is lower than 1 it can float, if it's density is greater than 1 it can't float.
What things make you float?
There are many things that make you float such as a bin or large container turned upside down. The best things that make you float are things with air trapped inside them. These things may be large empty water containers from a water dispencer or lots of bubble wrap or even a coat that has air in the lining.
Does salt make things float better?
dawdadawdawd yes
Why does salt water make things float?
salt makes the water denser, so things that are now less dense than the salt water will float
How does salt make things float?
It makes the water more dense.
When you increase the surface area does that make things float more?
Yes
Why does saltwater make an object float?
because th salt makes things float and George bush was the worst president
Why does bouyancy lift things in water?
Buoyancy is an upward lifting force, which means in the water buoyancy can make things float, for example: a rubber duck, pineapple, softball, etc. And that of buoyancy can make you float in the water.
If you're in a strong gravitational field does it make rocks float and other things float?
No,if you're in space then yes,if you are in earth obviously no
What is a liquid that makes things float?
It is quite common for various things to float in water. But any liquid can cause things to float.
How do you make things float with your hands?
it is not real it is only an illusion that makes people think it is floating
