There is a physics experiment using a rubber ball and uncooked rice. Put the ball in a jar cover with rice and shake. Magic--the ball floats to the top. WHY?

the ball is less dense than the uncooked rice so it has enough bouyancy to float through the rice like a boat stays above water.

Is density the reason that styrofoam floats?
No, it floats because of buoyancy.
Density symbol in physics?
Hello,yes it is a type of science physics.It means that density is like.....for example if i get an orange or an unpeeled orange and the orange floats and the unpeeled one doesnt why??Cause the water has less density then the unpeeled orange -Nicole
What floats and does not float?
A pencil floats, a human no float, a feather floats, paper floats, ice floats, keys do not float, rocks do not float, coins do not, flip flops float. Second answer: I think you meant to ask, 'What floats and then some time later starts to sink. If that is what you meant, the answer is: There are absorbent substances which float when dry, then after absorbing water while they are floating, they increase in density and then sink.
What kind of cheese floats on water?

How does the density of each material relate to how high it floats in the water?
if its heavier than water it sinks. lighter floats
What is an experiment about buoyancy?
Put something in a glass of water, and see if it floats.
What is an experiment you can do to test buoyancy?
Place the object to be tested in the liquid you are interested in and see if it floats or not.
Is making an egg float in salt water chemistry or science or physics?
Density is physical, that's what 'egg-floats-in-salt-water-' is all about.

What is a collective noun for float?

What area is a lava lamp in biology chemistry physics or earth?
A lava lamp is a study in physics. The lamp functions on density and that density or mass as it is called, changes with the addition of heat to the container. When heat is applied the substance that floats changes to lighter mass and begins to rise. When it reaches the top where it is cooler, it gets dense and sinks.
What is the problem of the science project of how salty does the sea have to be before an egg floats'?
The experiment is about density change of salt solution and the buoyancy force due to density difference of the object (egg) and medium (salted water).
When was Floats - drink - created?
Floats - drink - was created in 2008.
