How can you make a feather sink in water?
As long as the feather stays all by itself, it will never sink in water, because its density is much less than the density of water. If you really need to sink it, then you must tie it to something much more dense, like a rock or a fishing sinker.
Why do objects sink or float in water?
Objects float or sink in water based on their density. If an object is less dense than water, it will float. If it is denser, it will sink. This is because the buoyant force acting on the object upward counteracts the force of gravity pulling it down.
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.
Do marbles sink or float?
Marbles are denser than water, so they will sink when placed in water.
Does flint sink in water or float in water. Explain why so?
Flint typically sinks in water because it is denser than water. The density of flint is greater than the density of water, causing it to sink when placed in water.

Which will sink water or maple syrup?
Maple syrup will sink but water is unable to sink because it is water.
Why do you sink in water?
the water sink is not solid and liquid
Will arsenic float or sink in pure water?
Arsenic is denser than water, so it will sink in pure water.
Will silicon sink or float in water?
Silicon will sink in water because it has a higher density than water.
What water evaporates faster salt water or sink water?
Sink water or water without salt.

What can float and what can sink?
Hmmm. Canned/Tinned fruit will most certainly sink. Most fruits straight off from the tree will float. However, if the fruits are not ripe, they might sink as they are very dense. A coconut will most certainly float. A packet of biscuits (unopened) will float for a long time. Oatmeal flakes will float for a while, then sink to the bottom. Potatoes and carrots will sink. Lettuce and cabbage will float Regards.

Does calcium sink when placed in water?
Yes, calcium does sink in water
