what object will not sink or float but will stay suspended in the middle of water
A neutrally buoyant object.
cotton swab
Whether an object floats or not depends on its density. Density is the amount of mass in a volume, or mass divided by volume. If and object's density is less than that of water, it will float in water, and if an objects density is higher than that of water, it will sink in water. raw material (fishballs will sink down);but it will floats when it is cook. why
The weight of the substances are largely immaterial. What matters is the density. Assuming fresh water to have a density of 1.0 anything with a lighter density will float in it. For example, oil generally has a density of about 0.8, so it floats in water. Concrete has a density of about 2.4, so it sinks. http://physics.about.com/od/fluidmechanics/a/commondens.htm
Because that piece of charcoal is lighter that the water, so it floats.
Water's density is 1.00 g/cm^3. So anything less dense than 1, it floats.
It depends on the density of an object. If the density is higher than the density of the liquid, the it sink. If it's less, it floats.
If an object floats in water it will also float in the much denser mercury
It is lighter than water
something lighter than water
the amount of density
The object floats in the water.
Yes. A floating object displaces its own mass in water.
If the object floats it is less dense than water, if it submerges it is denser than water.
An object will float in water if it has LESS density than the water.
We both know it floats
False - Apex
False - Apex
An object floats in water if the object's density is less than water's...Conversely, an object will sink if it's density is greater than that of water.
