Is a cruise ships mass and volume equal?

No, a cruise ship's mass and volume are not equal. Mass refers to the amount of matter present in the ship, while volume refers to the amount of space the ship occupies. The mass of the ship is influenced by factors such as the materials it is made of and the items on board, while the volume is the physical size of the ship.


A cruise ship is having troubles with buoyancy. What is a reasonable solution?

To improve buoyancy on a cruise ship, reducing weight by removing unnecessary items or redistributing heavy cargo could help. Ensuring the ship is properly balanced and monitoring the water level in the ballast tanks to adjust buoyancy can also improve stability. Additionally, conducting regular maintenance on the hull to prevent leaks or damage that could impact buoyancy is important.


Why do large cruise ships float in water?

Large cruise ships float in water because of a principle called buoyancy. The shape of the ship's hull displaces an amount of water that weighs more than the ship itself, causing it to float. This buoyant force counteracts the force of gravity, allowing the ship to remain afloat.


How can a heave cruise ship made with lots of steel and other materials denser than water float?

That is because the ship is not pure steel. There are also spaces with air in between. This reduces the average density. Now, if the ship gets a hole, and water fills the spaces instead of air, the ship will sink.
