Density = mass/volume, so weigh a beaker, put your liquid in the beaker, weigh both beaker and liquid. With subtraction, find the weight of the liquid. Then, find the volume of the liquid with a graduated cylinder. Take mass/volume to find your density.
The Spanish word for floats is "flotadores."
A wooden boat floats in water due to its buoyancy and the displacement of water created by the boat's weight.
A piece of paper floats on water but cannot be lifted by a thousand men as it is too light.
Any item that floats displaces an amount of water equal to its own weight. This is known as Archimedes' principle.
Density = mass/volume, so weigh a beaker, put your liquid in the beaker, weigh both beaker and liquid. With subtraction, find the weight of the liquid. Then, find the volume of the liquid with a graduated cylinder. Take mass/volume to find your density.
Density Column to Separate Mixtures of SolidsYou could use a density column to separate mixtures of different solids by adding substances that have different densities. Then you would add in the solids, which would land or stop at a substance.
The density of water can be measured using a hydrometer, which is a device that floats in the water and gives a reading based on how high or low it floats. Another method is to use a graduated cylinder to measure the volume of a known mass of water and then calculate the density using the formula density = mass/volume.
Half fill a graduated glass beaker with water and note the level. Place irregularly shaped object into the beaker. Note the new level. The difference between the two levels is the volume of the object. cw: OK, that method works for objects that don't get wet -- like steel. Tissue paper would not be a good candidate. Also, if the object floats, you have to submerge the object.
A solid cylinder 1m in diameter and 0.8m high is of uniform relative density 0.85. Calculate the periodic time of small oscillations when cylinder floats with its axis vertical in still water
The volume of a beaker doesn't change, it's a beaker. What your were probably trying to ask is what happens to the volume of the ice when it melts. The volume decreases; water is special. Unlike other substances when it freezes it expands. That is why ice floats, it is less dense then water.
Assuming you mean the jelly-fish and not the tribe of people - the Irukandji absorbs oxygen from the water it floats in.
Assuming you mean a water solution of coffee, anything that floats in water (has a density of less than 1gcm-3) will float; this includes ice, dry wood, a balloon fiiled with air, etc.
There is no specific collective noun for a group of floats, in which case, general collective nouns are used according to the situation, such as an armload of floats, a bin of floats, a case of floats; or, you could be creative; a flight of floats, a flotilla of floats, a flurry of floats.
AIM: to find the volume of a piece of cork.APPARATIES: a displacement can, wooden block, beaker, measuring cylinder, sinker (ex. pebble) ,a piece of cork and piece of string.ACTIVITY:set up the appartus.(put the displacement can on the wooden block and place the beaker close to the wooden block~under the displacement can's sprout~fill the displacement can with water and allow excess water to flow into the beaker.~discard this water, u don't need it~place the dry measuring cylinder directly below the sprout.tie the stone to the string and lower it carefully into the displacement can.allow the displaced water to collect in the measuring cylinder.the amount of water collected is the volume of the stone. record it as VOLUME A.remove the stone from the displacement can and repeat steps 2 & 3.tie the cork on the same string you used to tie the stone and lower both of them carefully into the displacement can.allow the displaced water to collect in the measuring cylinder and record it as VOLUME B.the difference between volumes A & B ,is the volume of the cork.this is silly......because i never answered what the person asked....but i gave an answer.
If one or more injectors are sticking you'll get a condition called "washdown", in which liquid fuel coats the cylinder walls and gets past the piston, into the crankcase. If it has carbs. on it, the problem would be leaky needle valves, gas in your floats (floats leaking) or mis adjusted floats. Make shure the gas cap is vented and not preasurizing the fuel,forcing it into the pan
