What else can I help you with?
What happens when something is more dense then water?
When something is more dense than water, it will sink. This is because the upward buoyant force exerted by the water is not enough to overpower the gravitational force pulling the object downward.
Why is a dense object heavy?
In a way that's what dense means. If something is dense then a small volume of it will have lots of mass. Something that has lots of mass will be subject to considerable gravitational force, which is weight.
What word can you use to explain that something is heavy for its size?
It is a dense thing.
If something is heavy is it dense or not?
Density is related to both weight and volume, so you have to take both into account. If you have only a small amount of dense material it could still be light, and conversely if you have a lot of material that isn't dense it could still weigh a lot. For example, lead is pretty dense but if you only have a pinhead-sized dot of it, it wouldn't be heavy. Feathers aren't dense, but if you have enough to fill a railroad car their total weight would be significant.
What object has such a strong gravitational force that not even light can escape it?
A black hole is an object with such a strong gravitational force that not even light can escape from it, due to its extremely dense and compact nature.

What is it called when something is not as dense as water?
When something is not as dense as water, it is said to be less dense or have a lower density than water.
What objects experience large gravitational forces?
Large dense objects, and the closest objects.
Does a black dwarf have a small gravitational pull?
No. A black dwarf is dense and has the mass of an entire star, so the gravitational pull would still be quite strong.
Would two bigger things have a greater gravitational force than two smaller things?
Not necessarily, gravitational pull is dependant upon the mass of an object. A smaller object can have more mass than a bigger object (An extremely dense 1x1x1 cube has more gravitational pull than a less dense 3x3x3 cube that has less mass). Size has absolutely NOTHING to do with gravitational pull.

It is a dense thing.
How is the Earth layers formed?
Earth is layered due to gravitational compression that caused dense materials to sink onto the Earth's center, while the less dense materials rose.

What affects the earths gravitational pull?
Mass and density. The more mass an object has the higher its gravitational pull is. Some places on Earth are more dense than others. therefore they have more mass which can slightly increase the gravitational pull at that area.
What object has such a strong gravitational force that not even light can escape it?
A black hole is an object with such a strong gravitational force that not even light can escape from it, due to its extremely dense and compact nature.
What phenomenon allows objects or liquids that are less dense to float in liquids that are more dense?
If an object or liquid is is less dense than the liquid in which it floats, that's the reason why it floats, because whatever is less dense floats. If you meant to ask why something MORE dense can float in something LESS dense, one answer is surface tension.
