This phenomenon is called buoyancy and is caused by the object displacing water equal to its volume. If the weight of the object is less than the weight of this displaced water, then the object has positive buoyancy and will float. If the weight of the object is exactly equal to the weight of this displaced water, then the object has neutral buoyancy and thus be weightless. If the weight of the object is greater than the weight of this displaced water, then the object has negative buoyancy and will sink but it still weighs less than it did out of the water.
Just remember buoyancy only affects the weight of the object, it has no effect on the mass of the object which remains constant in or out of water.
What else can I help you with?
How can you calculate weight of object in water if original weight of object displaced and amount of water is given?
Here's one way that would work: 1. Weigh a bowl of water. 2. Hold the object underwater with a piece of wire or straw and mark the higher water level with a grease marker. 3. Fill the bowl to the line with more water and weigh it again.
What do you feel when you hold and object against the pull of gravity?
When you hold an object against the pull of gravity, you feel a sensation of weight in your hand due to the force required to counteract gravity. This feeling can vary depending on the mass of the object and the strength of the gravitational force acting on it.
How does the weight balance scale work to measure the mass of objects accurately?
A weight balance scale works by comparing the weight of an object to a known standard weight. The scale has two pans that hold the object being measured and the standard weight. When the two pans are balanced, it means the weight of the object is equal to the standard weight, allowing for an accurate measurement of the object's mass.
What is the gratest amount an object can hold?
The greatest amount an object can hold depends on its size and material. Generally, objects can hold as much as their volume allows without breaking or reaching their weight capacity.
What is difference between static weight and dynamic weight?
Static weight is the total amount of weight a table can safely hold in a static position. The dynamic weight is the weight placed in an object and then put into motion. The difference therefore is the weight being stationary or in motion

What does density have to do with the ability to float?
Using water is an example, anything that is less dense than water will float on water. Anything that is denser than water will sink in water.
How does density effect things?
well when the salt dissolves into the water it makes water considerably denser and there for the water can hold more weight by:Matthew Shouse
What will make a boat hold weight?
How much weight a boat will hold depends on the volume of the boat. This is called displacement. displacement is exactly equal to the weight of the water the boat displaces, that is the boat makes a hole in the water. The volume of that hole times the weight of water (64 lbs for salt water, 62.4 for fresh water) - displacement. The volume of water displaces is equal to the volume of the boat.
How does salinity affect the way objects sink or float?
When salt dissolves in water, it makes the water more dense, therefore water can hold more weight.

Method used to figure the volume of an irregular object?
Immerse the object in water and measure the volume of water that is displaced. One way would be to fill a container, large enough to hold the object, with water until it is just about to overflow. The container and water would need to be inside another container that could capture the displaced water. Submerge the object in the water and then measure the volume (or weight) of the water that overflows

About how much water does a bucket hold?
It depends on the bucket size, but usually a standard size bucket would hold a few litters of water.
What is the gratest amount an object can hold?
The greatest amount an object can hold depends on its size and material. Generally, objects can hold as much as their volume allows without breaking or reaching their weight capacity.
How much water does hyaluronic acid hold?
Hyaluronic acid can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water.
