Things sink or float in oil based on their density. Objects that are less dense than the oil will float, while objects that are denser will sink. This is due to Archimedes' principle - an object will float if the weight of the fluid it displaces is equal to or greater than its own weight.
It depends on the density of the object and the density of the oil. If the object has a higher density than the oil, it will sink. If the object has a lower density than the oil, it will float.
No, water will sink in oil because oil is less dense than water. This causes the water to be heavier and sink below the oil.
Objects float or sink based on their density relative to the fluid they are in. If an object is less dense than the fluid, it will float; if it is more dense, it will sink. This is due to the buoyant force acting on the object, which is the result of the pressure difference between the top and bottom of the object.
Wood will float in corn oil because wood is less dense than oil, causing it to float. Oil is less dense than water, so anything less dense than oil will also float in oil.
The density of an object determines if it sinks or floats. If an object is more dense than the medium it is in, it will sink. If it is less dense, it will float. Therefore, the most dense things typically sink.
Float.
FLOAT
It'll float
It sinks
It depends on the density of the object and the density of the oil. If the object has a higher density than the oil, it will sink. If the object has a lower density than the oil, it will float.
No. It is more dense. It will sink.

Boats that get holes in them.
Hmmm. Canned/Tinned fruit will most certainly sink. Most fruits straight off from the tree will float. However, if the fruits are not ripe, they might sink as they are very dense. A coconut will most certainly float. A packet of biscuits (unopened) will float for a long time. Oatmeal flakes will float for a while, then sink to the bottom. Potatoes and carrots will sink. Lettuce and cabbage will float Regards.
No, water will sink in oil because oil is less dense than water. This causes the water to be heavier and sink below the oil.
Chalk powder is denser than oil, so it will sink when added to oil. This is because the density of an object determines if it will float or sink in a liquid - objects with a higher density than the liquid will sink, while objects with a lower density will float.
