What else can I help you with?
Can a paper boat float?
Yes, a paper boat can float on water as long as it is well-made and the paper is not too thin. The boat's ability to float depends on its design and the displacement of water.
If a boat were made of gold would it float?
No, a boat made entirely of gold would not float because gold is much denser than water. The density of gold is about 19 times higher than water, so the boat would sink.
How can you explain to a six year old why a boat can float?
A boat can float because it is made of materials that are less dense than water. This means that the boat weighs less than the amount of water it pushes aside, allowing it to stay on top of the water instead of sinking.
How a boat made of steel float?
A boat made of steel floats because of the principle of buoyancy. When the boat displaces water that has a weight equal to or greater than the weight of the boat, it floats. The steel hull is designed to displace enough water to generate an upward force greater than the weight of the boat, keeping it afloat.
What is the density of an object to do with if it can float or not?
If an Object (considering only its TOTAL VOLUME) is more Dense than the Fluid it is immersed in, it will sink. If it is Less Dense, it will Float.Remember we are talking about the Object's TOTAL Volume. For example, a boat, includes it entire space below Deck, from Stem to Stern. That is why a Boat which is made of Steel (more Dense than Water) can Float! It is Hollow, so its TOTAL Density including Empty Space is LESS than Water for the SAME Volume.
How can a boat float and don't sink?
because the boat is made out of stuff that can float
Can a paper boat float?
Yes, a paper boat can float on water as long as it is well-made and the paper is not too thin. The boat's ability to float depends on its design and the displacement of water.
Is it possible for a boat made of concrete to float?
yes a boat made of concrete is possible to float if it displaces water that weight more than its own weight.
Why should a boat made of metal float?
The size of the boat is equal to the water displaced by the boat. This means, if the boat is bigger then its weight, the boat will float. If the boat is smaller than its weight, it sinks. This is why metal ships are so big.
Why would the box float on water even if it's made of tin?
coz its hollow
What is plasticine made of?
The main ingredients of Plasticine are petroleum jelly, calcium salts, and aliphatic acids. Plasticine is used as a modeling clay.
If a boat were made of gold would it float?
No, a boat made entirely of gold would not float because gold is much denser than water. The density of gold is about 19 times higher than water, so the boat would sink.
In what year did plasticine first go on sale?
Invented in 1897, patented and made available in 1900. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasticine

Why do boats float if they are made of materials that normally sink?
because inside the boat has air. think when u blow up a ballon it floats same with a boat the out side of the boat is metal
Is plasticine made of plastic or rubber or is it a mix?
I think it mixes
The garden on 'James may's toy stories' was made entirely of what?
plasticine
