How do you know an object has the most density?
An object has the most density when it has the greatest mass for its volume compared to other objects of the same material. Density is calculated as mass divided by volume, so the object with the most mass in the least volume will have the highest density.
What makes objects more or less buoyant than other objects?
The buoyancy of an object is determined by its density compared to the density of the fluid it is placed in. Objects that are less dense than the fluid will float, while objects that are more dense will sink. The shape and volume of the object also play a role in determining its buoyancy.
Why do some objects float when placed in a container filled with a liquid while other sink?
Objects float or sink in a liquid based on their density compared to the density of the liquid. If the object's density is less than that of the liquid, it will float. If its density is greater, it will sink. Archimedes' principle states that the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid the object displaces.
Why is it inaccurate to say that heavy objects sink and light objects float?
Because it is all about the physical concept of Density . You should say that an object will float if it's Density is lower than the Density of the fluid you choose to put it into . Example. Aluminum will float in Mercury liquid, because it is less dense than Mercury, yet you might refer to Aluminum as a heavy object , depending upon what other substance you are comparing it to.
How can you tell when an object will float on water or any other liquid?
The density of an object determines whether it will float or sink in another substance. An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. also an object will sink if it is denser than the liquid it is placed in.

How does the density of an object effect its gravitational pull on other objects example when a star's density increases its gravitational pull increases on other objects?
Mass, not density, and the closeness of objects, affects an object's gravitational pull. Density is not dependent on an object's size, but mass is. The more massive an object, and/or the closer an object is to another, the greater its gravitational pull.
What is the relationship between an objects density and the liquid density and the tendency of an object to float?
A less dense object or any other substance will float on a more dense liquid.

Is there a difference between the density of a square wooden object and the density of a rectanglar wooden object?
A rectangle wooden object is much heavier so it has a low density. The square wooden object is lighter so it has a high densityThe shape has no effect on the density of two objects made of the same material.One has more of the wood than the other.

An object with high volume and low mass has?
1. It has more gravitational force exerted on other objects 2. It holds more energy than smaller objects
What does a positive and neutral object do?
A positive object is attracted to negative objects and repelled by other positive objects. A neutral object does not attract or repel other objects based on their charge.
How can diffreent objects have the same density?
Different objects can have the same density if they have different masses and volumes that balance each other out. For example, a small piece of iron and a larger piece of wood can have the same density if the iron is much denser but the wood is much larger in volume. Density is a function of both mass and volume, so objects can have different combinations of these two factors that result in the same density.
If an object has a density of less that 1 it will?
It will float in water, and in any other fluid whose density is greater than the object's density.
