something lighter than water
The property of buoyancy that describes how an object floats on top of water is called "Archimedes' Principle."
Yes. A floating object displaces its own mass in water.
The force pushing the object up when it floats in water is called buoyant force. This force is a result of the difference in pressure between the top and bottom of the object in the water, pushing the object upwards.
False. Gravity is always acting on an object, but when an object floats on water, the buoyant force provided by the water is equal to the gravitational force acting on the object, causing it to float rather than sink.
Yes, the water displacement method can be used to calculate the density of an object that floats in water. To do this, you would need to measure the volume of the water displaced by the object when it is submerged, and then divide the object's mass by this volume to find its density.
If an object floats in water it will also float in the much denser mercury

the amount of density
You can put a uniform object into water.If it sinks density is higher than water,if floats lesser than water.If you can place anywhere in water,density is equal to water.

We both know it floats
You can tell that it is less dense than water which has a density of 1 cc
what object will not sink or float but will stay suspended in the middle of water
If an object floats on water, it means its density is less than that of water. You can calculate the density of the object by comparing its weight to its volume, using the formula density = mass/volume. The density of water is about 1 g/cm^3, so if the object floats on water, its density will be less than 1 g/cm^3.
