Fish take in Oxygen from the water through their Gills, this is how they breathe. They don't breathe in the same way we do.

How much air volume is needed to float 1000 pounds?

To determine the volume of air needed to float an object, you need to know the density of air and the weight of the object. For example, if the density of air is approximately 0.075 lb/ft³, then to float a 1000-pound object, you would need approximately 13,333.33 ft³ of air (1000 lb / 0.075 lb/ft³ = 13,333.33 ft³).


If the object is buoyant wil it tend to sink or float?

Buoyant means: Tending to float on a liquid or rise in air or gas


Why do filled things with air float on water?

Objects filled with air float on water because the density of air is much lower than the density of water. This creates buoyant force, which causes the object to float. The air-filled object displaces an amount of water equal to its weight, allowing it to stay afloat.


How can you make a bottle float then sink then float?

A bottle, though heavier than water, can be made to float by trapping air inside of it. This same bottle can be made to sink by filling it with water, or a substance heavier than water. It can again float by emptying it and trapping air in it.


Why does air make things float?

The only things that "float" in air, are things that are lighter than air, and this is because they displace a quantity of air that weighs more than the thing that is floating. This is also true of things that float in water or any other fluid. As for heavier-than-air things that "float" (fly), these are kept aloft by the motion of air, or by the motion of the thing through the air, which amounts to the same thing. In either case, air is passing the flying thing (for instance, an airplane wing) above and below it, creating low pressure above and high pressure below, thereby lifting the thing off the ground. This works only for things that are aerodynamically correct, and these are called airfoils - an airplane wing, a helicopter rotor and a kite are common examples.

What do you do to make an object float in air?

that's impossible because gravity is to powerful so it keeps pulling the object down


How does an objects size and shape affect buoyancy?

Well, buoyancy is capacity to float in liquid. So the object needs to have air to make it float an example for an boat the Titanic for example was really heavy it was made out of steel so it had air in the bottom to make the ship float.


Can a solid object float on air?

If it less dense


What is the formula of finding objects could float in air or not?

(mass of object)/(volume of object) ≤ 1.225 kg/m3 (this is the approximate density of air at normal atmospheric conditions - your mileage may vary)


Does mass affect whether or not an object will float?

no and mass is air


What could you do to float an object in air?

put rockets on it or attach fishing line to the top of it then put the other end on a long stick.


How do you make a animation character float in the air?

You could get thin, 'invisible' thread and tie it to your character


Would an inflated tyre weighing 30kg holding an object weighing 100kg float?

It could, if it contained enough air. To float on water, you would need about 1 liter of air for every kilogram you want to keep afloat.
