Will a steel bar float in water?
No, a solid steel bar will sink in water because steel is denser than water. Only objects with a lower density than water will float.
Will a steel ball float in mercury if it's heated?
No, a steel ball will not float in mercury, even if it is heated. Mercury is much denser than steel, so the steel ball will sink in mercury regardless of its temperature.
Does steel cans float?
No, steel cans do not float because steel is denser than water. This means that the weight of the steel can is greater than the buoyant force acting against it, causing it to sink in water.
Will 7.81 g of steel float on water?
No, 7.81 g of steel will sink in water because steel is denser than water. Steel has a higher density than water, so it will not displace enough water to float.
Steel is denser than water yet steel ships float. explain?
Steel ships float because of the principle of buoyancy. When an object is placed in a fluid, like water, it displaces an amount of fluid equal to its own weight. This upward force, called buoyant force, counteracts the weight of the steel ship and allows it to float. While steel is denser than water, the overall shape and volume of the ship allows it to displace enough water to float.
What is the diffrent between a magnetised steel nail and an unmagnetised steel nail?
what is the diffrence between a magnetised nail and a unmagnetised nail
A steel nail but a steel ship floats how can that be?
The steel ship has a lot of air inside. The nail is solid steel.
What happened when you swallow a steel nail?
steel nail goes inside your body.
When you touch a magnet to a steel nail the nail attracts steel paper clips. Explaine why this does not happen when you use an aluminum nail?
it wouldn't be magnet to a aluminum nail because the aluminum is not a way of magnet and a steel nail would because steel is a way of magnet.
Is a steel nail a metal?
Yes, a steel nail is a metal. Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, and metals are chemical elements that have properties such as malleability, ductility, and conductivity.
How a nail sink in a water but the ships float?
Iron (or steel) has about 8 times the density of water. Therefore, the nail will sink. The ship also has empty spaces, with air, inside - thus the average density is less than that of water.
Which mineral can be scratched by a steel nail?
Calcite is a mineral that can be easily scratched by a steel nail due to its relatively low hardness compared to steel.
Do a steel nail and a magnet stick together?
A steel nail and a magnet can stick together because steel is a ferromagnetic material. This means that it can be magnetized and will be attracted to a magnet. When a magnet is brought close to a steel nail, the magnetic field can cause the nail to become magnetized, leading to attraction. However, if the nail is not magnetized or if the magnet is too weak, they may not stick together.
If a nail is made of steel will it be magnetized why?
Yes, if a nail is made of steel, it will will not be magnetized unless it is magnetized by a magnet by being hit.
Why would a solid steel marble sink and a steel bowl float in a bathtub of water?
it is hollow so it will float
Can fluorite be scratched by a steel nail?
Yes. A steel nail has a Mohs hardness greater than that of fluorite.
Will a steel bar float in water?
No, a solid steel bar will sink in water because steel is denser than water. Only objects with a lower density than water will float.
