Objects that are less dense than the environment in which they are immersed will float, unless they are tethered.
What else can I help you with?
A balance is used to measure mass true or false?
True, the most common method is to use a balance
Is this statement True or False The amount of matter in an object is it's weight?
False It should read: The amount of matter in an object is its mass (not weight)
What must be true about the weight of an object and the buoyant force acting on the object in order for that object to float?
They must be equal. When forces are balanced, there is no acceleration, and the object will neither rise nor sink.
What is the definition of actual mass?
The actual mass number is the total number of neutrons and protons in the nucleus of an atom. Atoms commonly have varying numbers of neutrons in the same element, these variants are referred to as isotopes.
Why does the density of an object never change?
1 I'm not sure that this is true-- at least without some qualifications. If an object's shape is changed in such a way that it will enclose one or more pockets of air, some other substance, or even vacuum, the object's over-all density may change. If no pockets are formed, then the density probably is not changed 2 Density is the ratio of mass to volume.
What is true about the mass and volume of all floating objects?
The volume of liquid displaced has the same mass as the floating object.
If an object floats the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the portion of the object that's underwater true or false?
It's true that the volume of displaced water of a floating object equalst the portion of that object that is underwater.
True or false if a object floats the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the whole object?
True. According to Archimedes' principle, the volume of water displaced by an object floating in a fluid (like water) is equal to the volume of the part of the object that is submerged in the fluid.
Is it true or false Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume.?
true
Is density calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume true or false?
true
Is it true that Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume?
Yes
How do you find the volume of a floating object?
Exactly the same as for a non-floating object. Finding the volume of a shape does not vary, (i.e it's always something along the lines of height*width*depth, or area of base *height. "Table" or "surface" is irrelevant, since if it not a variable in the formula). This is true whether the object is floating or not.
What density of the blue object is true?
The density of the blue object is determined by dividing the mass of the object by its volume. It is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume. The formula for density is density = mass/volume.
If an object floats the volume of displaced water is equal to the volume of what?
Look at the LAST WORD of the question, they switch it sometimes if it is: Underwater than it is TRUE, If it's Surface of the water than it is FALSE ~
Will an object float if the volume is bigger than its mass?
If these measurements are made in cubic cemtimeters (volume) and grams (mass) this is true. But, if mass is from the english system, (not really pounds, it is slugs, but who knows what a slug is?) and the volume is cubic feet, this is not true.
When Density is the comparison of how much matter an object contains to the space is occupiestrue or false?
True. Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume of a substance. It is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume.
What is true about the mass and volume of all sinking object?
If an object sinks in water, then its mass is greater than the mass of the volume of water that the object displaces. (That could be equal to or greater than the object's actual volume ... a drinking glass displaces more water than the volume of glass in it until the water washes over its rim. A canoe, a bass-boat, and a ship are designed to displace more water than their actual volume.)
