Why can't people sink in water?
The human reflex is to breathe in air when the lungs need it. So the lungs dont burst from not getting air, the person instinctively opens their mouth for air and swallows all the water, which then fills their lungs with water. Once all these gasses have escaped from the body its average density is higher than water and so the body sinks. Interstingly dolphins are the only mammals that do not have the reflex memtntion above and so when they are trapped in a net under the water they hold their breath and suffocait themselves.
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 is human body afloat in great salt lake than normal fresh water lakes?
In fresh water a human is more dense than the water around him or her causing them to sink slowly. In salt lake the water is more dense than the human because of the fact that it has salt in it causing the human to float. Also have you ever noticed that if you fill your lungs with air the in fresh water you will float, but if you fully deflate your lungs you will sink? pretty cool huh?
