How does the density of an floting on a compare to the desity of the fluid?
An object floats on a fluid when its density is less than the density of the fluid. This is due to buoyancy, the upward force exerted by a fluid on an object. If the object's density is equal to or greater than the fluid's density, it will sink.
If you had a object with a density of 1.12 gcm3 would it sink or float in a container of salt water that has a density of 1.35 gmL?
The object would float in the salt water since its density is less than the density of the salt water. Objects with a lower density than the fluid they are placed in will float, while those with higher density will sink.
If you had a object with a density of 1.12 gcm3 would it sink or float in a container of salt water that has a density of 1.35 gmL why?
The object would float in the salt water. This is because the object's density (1.12 g/cm3) is less than the density of the salt water (1.35 g/mL), making it less dense than the surrounding medium and causing it to float.
What are things that will sink in water?
weights, rocks, EARRINGS, fabric, broken boats, computers, houses... Anything that has a surface area, which displaces less water than the mass of the object, will sink. For example, water can support a 1 cubic foot object up 62.4lbs (in freshwater). If the object weighs more than that, but keeps the same dimensions, the water can no longer support it and that object will sink. If the object remains at 62.4lbs, but becomes less than 1 cubic foot, the object will sink, because it is displacing less water.
For an object to sink in a fluid there must be an unbalanced force?
Yes, an object will sink in a fluid if the force of gravity pulling the object down is greater than the buoyant force pushing the object up. This creates an unbalanced force that causes the object to sink.
The density of water is equal to 1.0 gcm3. A substance with density equal to 1.3 gcm3 would in water.?

The density of water is equal to 1.0 gcm3 A substance with density equal to 1.3 gcm3 wouldin water?
A substance with a density of 1.3gcm-3 would sink in water. Float (APEX)
What property causes an object to float in salt waterr but sink in fresh water?
The property that causes an object to float in saltwater but sink in freshwater is density. Saltwater is denser than freshwater due to the dissolved salts, so objects that are less dense than saltwater will float in it but sink in freshwater.
If you had a object with a density of 1.12 gcm3 would it sink or float in a container of salt water that has a density of 1.35 gmL?
The object would float in the salt water since its density is less than the density of the salt water. Objects with a lower density than the fluid they are placed in will float, while those with higher density will sink.
What would happen to the egg in the freshwater glass?
The egg would sink in freshwater because it is denser than water. Eggs have a higher density than freshwater, so they sink rather than float.
How can you tell if an object will sink or float before you throw it into a freshwater pond?
Calculate the object's density. If the density is less than that of fresh water it will float, if it is more it will sink in fresh water. Density is the mass of the object divided by its volume. The density of fresh water is 1000 kilograms per cubic meter, or 1 kg per litre.
If you had a object with a density of 1.12 gcm3 would it sink or float in a container of salt water that has a density of 1.35 gmL why?

What causes object sink?
An object will sink if gravity effects it more then it's boyancy does.
When will an object sink or float?
Object will sink when the area replaced by the object is less than the body of water and vice-versa .
