How can you predict if something will sink or float?

An object will sink if it weighs more than the water it pushes away, and an object will float if it weighs less than the water it pushes away. The Greek mathematician Archimedes discovered that the amount of water displaced by an object depends on the mass of that object. Mass is the amount of matter in a substance, and dense objects have more mass than less dense objects. Dense objects that do not displace much water will sink, while less dense objects that displace a lot of water will float.


What happens to the gravitational attraction between two objects if one or both objects acquires more mass?

The gravitational attraction between two objects increases as the mass of one or both objects increases. This is because gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of the objects. Therefore, the more massive the objects are, the stronger the gravitational attraction between them.

How can you predict whether an object will sink or float?

The density of water is 1 g/cm cubed, and objects more dense that water will sink, while objects less dense than water will float. An object will sink if it weighs more than the water it pushes away, and an object will float if it weighs less than the water it pushes away. The Greek mathematician Archimedes discovered that the amount of water displaced by an object depends on the mass of that object. Mass is the amount of matter in a substance, and dense objects have more mass than less dense objects. Dense objects that do not displace much water will sink, while less dense objects that displace a lot of water will float.


Will objects with densities higher than water sink or float?

Objects with densities higher than water will sink. Density is the measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume, so objects with higher densities will displace less water than their own mass which causes them to sink.

Why do objects have the same denisites?

because they have the same mass when placed in water

What happens to gravity when you increase the mass of objects?

More mass --> more gravity.


What happens if a potato slice is placed in pure water?

When a potato slice/piece is placed in pure water, it gains mass and appears to be blown up. This is because the water is travelling into the potato because it has a lower concentration of water inside it.


Is water is an example of mass?

Yes. All physical objects have mass

What happens to the unused blessed hosts after communion?

The Hosts are placed in the tabernacle and at the next Mass they are blended with the consecrated Hosts from that Mass.


Do all objects weigh the same amount when placed in a vaccum regardless of their mass?

No. In a vacuum, the weight of an object will be the product their mass, times the gravity. In other words, objects with different masses will have different weights.


What does the volume of displaced water equal?

It equals the mass of the object placed in it.
