Objects sink when their density is greater than the density of the fluid they are in. This causes them to displace a volume of fluid that weighs less than the object itself, leading to the object sinking due to the force of gravity.
Rocks sink because they are denser than water, causing them to displace less water and therefore sink. Metal objects sink due to their high density, which makes them heavier than water and causes them to sink. Sunken ships sink because they take on water, increasing their overall weight and causing them to sink below the water's surface.
In general, heavier things will sink faster than lighter things in a fluid like water due to greater gravitational force. However, factors like shape, size, and density can also affect the rate at which objects sink.
The sinking speed of an object depends on its density and shape. Objects with high density and streamlined shape tend to sink faster, while objects with lower density and irregular shape can sink more slowly. The surrounding fluid's properties, such as viscosity and temperature, can also affect how fast something sinks.
Some things float or sink based on their density. Objects that are less dense than the liquid they are placed in will float, while those that are more dense will sink. Additionally, the shape and size of an object can also affect whether it floats or sinks.
The density of an object compared to the density of water determines whether it will float or sink. An object with a higher density than water will sink, while an object with a lower density will float. Mass does play a role in determining density but is not the sole factor in whether something floats or sinks.
Why do brain work? Write a question that makes sense! ^lol
Not all heavy things sink. Things that are more dense than the liquid around them will sink.
Rocks sink because they are denser than water, causing them to displace less water and therefore sink. Metal objects sink due to their high density, which makes them heavier than water and causes them to sink. Sunken ships sink because they take on water, increasing their overall weight and causing them to sink below the water's surface.
it makes sink noses when you use it
Gravity. It's the same force which pulls things down even without water.
Different things. For example, the Titanic sank because it hit an iceberg. Other ships sink because the weight on it is too heavy. It also depends on how sturdy the ship or boat is. If it is a handmade small boat, jump on it- and it will sink. if it is medium or big, someting like a rock or an iceberg can sink it.
they have special feet which makes them not sink
makes the heat sink
cause it does
Answr: Water
density
The sand puts weight on it and it makes in sink.
