What keeps the ship steady on the water?

The ship's design, shape, and weight distribution help keep it steady on the water. Additionally, stabilizers such as fins or gyroscopes can be used to reduce rolling motion caused by waves. Proper navigation techniques and skilled crew also play a role in maintaining stability.


What forces on a ship?

A ship experiences forces such as propulsion from its engines, resistance from the water it moves through, buoyancy that keeps it afloat, and gravity that pulls it down. These forces work together to determine the ship's motion and stability on the water.


How does ship stay afloat on water?

A ship stays afloat on water due to the principle of buoyancy. The weight of the ship is displaced by an equal volume of water, creating an upward force called buoyancy that keeps the ship from sinking. The shape and design of the ship's hull help distribute the weight and control buoyancy to keep the ship stable and afloat.


Why ship doesn't sink in water in science explanation?

Ships float because of a principle called buoyancy. The weight of the ship is less than the weight of water it displaces, creating an upward force that keeps the ship afloat. The shape of the ship's hull also helps distribute the weight and support the ship atop the water.


In order for an airplane to remain in level steady flight what must happen to the four forces?

In level steady flight, lift force equals weight, and thrust force equals drag force. This balance of forces keeps the airplane in level flight without ascending or descending.
