Why would the impact of the heavy stone would produce waves with higher amplitude than the impact of the light stone would?
The heavy stone carries more energy when it impacts the water, causing larger waves with higher amplitude to be produced. This is because the heavier stone transfers more kinetic energy to the water upon impact, displacing more water molecules and creating larger waves compared to the lighter stone.
Why does wood float but stone sink?
First, the stone sinks because of the weight, the wood would probably be much lighter than the stone.Second, the density. The stone is much more dense than the wood
Why do a stone feel lighter underwater?
A stone feels lighter underwater because of buoyancy, which is the upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an object immersed in it. In water, the buoyant force partially counteracts the gravitational force acting on the stone, making it feel lighter.
Will helium float in water?
Yes, helium will float in water. Helium is lighter than air, so it will also be lighter than water and rise to the surface when submerged in water.
Are objects lighter in water than in air?
They are not really lighter, they only seem lighter. Objects weigh the same in water as in air, but in the water, there is an additional force, of the water pushing the object up.
Is a stone lighter than a kilogram?
No. A stone is about 6.4 times heavier than a kilogram.

This is because the heavier stone transfers more kinetic energy to the water upon impact, displacing more water molecules and creating larger waves compared to the lighter stone.
Are mangoes lighter than water?
Yes, mangoes are lighter than water. The density of mangoes is lower than the density of water, which means they will float in water.
Is Saturn lighter or heavier than water?
Saturn is much lighter than water. It is a gas giant made primarily of hydrogen and helium, with a density lower than that of water.
Which type of stone is lighter than water?
Pumice is a type of volcanic rock that is lighter than water. This is due to the presence of air bubbles trapped within the rock's structure, giving it a low density that allows it to float on water.
Why does wood float but stone sink?
First, the stone sinks because of the weight, the wood would probably be much lighter than the stone.Second, the density. The stone is much more dense than the wood
Why does a stone feel lighter when it was under water?
because the upthrust force of the water acting on the stone was pushing the stone upwards meaning it was acting against the downwards weight of the stone (its weight). This meant that the downwards force was decreased and therefore felt lighter :)
Is frozen water 9 pecent lighter than water?
Yes, Frozen water is 9% Lighter than actual water .
Do plastic float on water?
depends if the plastic is heavier or lighter than water and if its hold air which is lighter than water
The Romans developed what to help them build t hat were lighter than stone?
The Romans developed concrete as a building material that was lighter than stone in some cases. They had different weights of concretes.
Why do a stone feel lighter underwater?
A stone feels lighter underwater because of buoyancy, which is the upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an object immersed in it. In water, the buoyant force partially counteracts the gravitational force acting on the stone, making it feel lighter.
Why does a stone in water sinks and the wood floats into the water?
Something has neutral bouyancy if it stays in the water wherever you put it, only if it has the same density as the water - there is no cause for it to float or sink than the volume of water it has displaced. If its density is more, as for a stone, it must be heavier than that so it sinks. For wood, it is lighter so water from above drops down as the wood rises.
