What will be the effect of displaced water if load is added into ship float in ocean?
More water will be displaced equal to the load placed on the ship as long as the ship continues to float. This is not equal in volume, but equal in mass to that of the load.
How you will measure the volume of an irregular object that float on water?
Push it down, and measure how much water is displaced.
If an object float the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the whole object?
False
How can aluminum float on water?
Shape the aluminum to look like a boat, so it displaces enough water to float. The force supporting the aluminum is the buoyant force. It is equal to the weight of the volume of water displaced.
How much water should a girl weighing 600N displace in order to float on water?
The displaced water should also weigh 450 N.
What is a force helps a ship float?
Buoyant force = Density of the water * g * Volume of displaced water For the ship to float, the buoyant force must be equal to the weight of the ship. Density of the water * g * Volume of displaced water = m * g Density of the water * Volume of displaced water = m When you multiply the density of water by the volume of displaced water, you get the mass of the ship.
What can float in the water?
Many things can float in water. An object will float based on 2 main factors. They are density and shape. If an object is too dense, it will sink. But why would shape matter? The shape of the object affects how the water is displaced. If the weight of the water displaced is more than the weight of the object that is touching the water, the object will float. So the shape affects how much water is displaced therefore determines if an object will float.
What will be the effect of displaced water if load is added into ship float in ocean?
More water will be displaced equal to the load placed on the ship as long as the ship continues to float. This is not equal in volume, but equal in mass to that of the load.
How much water does a large ship displace to float?
the weight of the ship is equal to the amount of water displaced
How you will measure the volume of an irregular object that float on water?
Push it down, and measure how much water is displaced.
If an object float the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the whole object?
False
What forceis exerted by water in order for the ship to float?
An upthrust force which is proportional to the weight of the ship being displaced on the water.this can simply be regarded as principle of floatation
Why can't heavy objects float without salt?
They can float without salt - It's the ratio of water displaced by the object in relation to its weight of the object that allows it to float - not the salt content of the water.
How do you predict whether an object will sink of float?
the area of contact of the object with water,if it seems to more .water displaced by it
Why does a thumbtack sink inwater?
Huh, can't you float a thumbtack in water? If it sinks, it means that the amount of water displaced weighs less than the tack.
When an object float does the volume of the displaced water equal to the volume of the portion of the objects that's underwater?
Yes.
WHAT is a force that helps a float?
The amount of water displaced by its base body is heavier than the weight of the ship.
