Name three things that sink and why they sink?
Rocks sink because they are denser than water, causing them to displace less water and therefore sink. Metal objects sink due to their high density, which makes them heavier than water and causes them to sink. Sunken ships sink because they take on water, increasing their overall weight and causing them to sink below the water's surface.
Why do boats float and ships sink?
Provided the boats and the ships displace their weight in water without the water coming inboard, they will float and not sink. A boat made of wood is likely to float even when full of water because wood tends to float. It is all to do with displacement and freeboard.
Why do ships float while coins sink?
Ships float because they displace enough water to create an upward force called buoyancy that is greater than their weight. Coins sink because they are denser than water and therefore displace less water than their own weight.
Why do ships sink in the black sea?

Why do ships sink only below water while others sink to bottom floor of water after the have have been sunk?
Ships that don't sink to the bottom are either Submarines or have a buoyancy system inside that does not rely on the hull being water proof. (water tight) Some vessels have remained just at the surface for years after being lost due to the flotation the cargo provided. A cargo of lumber comes to mind supporting the vessel just at the surface as it drifted around the North Atlantic for over 18 months. Vessels that sink immediately are simply relying on the hull being water tight and once they fill with water down they go.

Why ships donot sink into the sea?
if i could draw you a picture, i would. ships have basically large tanks i their hulls filled with air to keep them afloat. imagine putting a sealed tupperware box in your bath tub, the top will remain above water level

Why does a penny sinks in water whereas ships doesnot sink in water?
All pure metal sinks, only by entrapping air in waterproof compartments can you make it (ships) float.
