It depends how fast it sinks. If it sinks fast, it creates a suction whirlpool and SHCLOOP! Everything is gone for a while and finally bobs back to the surface (if it can float). Slowly sinking ships don't though. (eg. Titanic, the movie whirpool was fake. the ship sank veeeerrry slowly, as it took some 2-3 hours)

What things can sink down?
Objects that are heavier than water will sink down, such as metal objects or rocks. Additionally, liquids and gases can sink down into a denser medium, like oil sinking down in water or hot air sinking down in cooler air.
Why does sinking and floating happen?
Objects sink or float in a fluid due to the balance between the weight of the object pushing down and the buoyant force pushing up. Objects that are less dense than the fluid they are in will float, while objects that are more dense will sink. This occurs because the buoyant force generated by the fluid is greater than the weight of the object in the case of floating, and vice versa for sinking.
Why does an object suspend in a liquid?
An object suspends in a liquid when the density of the object is equal to the density of the liquid. This results in a condition where the buoyant force pushing up on the object is equal to the force of gravity pulling it down, allowing it to remain suspended in the liquid without sinking or floating.
What is meant by neutral buoyancy?
Neutral buoyancy refers to the state of an object in a fluid where the buoyant force acting on the object is equal to the gravitational force pulling it down, resulting in the object neither sinking nor floating to the surface. This allows the object to remain suspended at a specific depth in the fluid.
Why does gravity stop things from floating?
Gravity is a fundamental force that pulls objects towards each other. When an object is floating, it is being supported by another force, such as buoyancy or air resistance, that counteracts gravity. If these supporting forces are removed or weakened, gravity will pull the object back down.
How is floating and sinking a force?
They aren't really. Floating is when an object is held up against the pull of gravity due to the density of the liquid in which the object is resting (though technically, while sitting in a chair you are "floating" but we generally don't use the word that way). Sinking is just an object being pulled down by gravity despite the resistance of the liquid. Sinking is functionally the same as falling, however it generally happens at a slower rate due to the higher resistance (friction) provided by liquid over gasses.
What things can sink down?
Objects that are heavier than water will sink down, such as metal objects or rocks. Additionally, liquids and gases can sink down into a denser medium, like oil sinking down in water or hot air sinking down in cooler air.
What can gravity cause?
* falling down * pouring down * rolling down * sliding down * raining down * snowing down * orbiting around * convection current * air pressure * water pressure * floating in air * floating in water
What would happen if things fall up instead of down?
Everything would be floating in the air.
Importance of gravitational force in normal life?
It stops you floating into space. It keeps the atmosphere near the surface of the earth so you can breathe. It allows the sun to burn and keeps the earth close enough to it to be able to feel its warmth.
Why does sinking and floating happen?
Objects sink or float in a fluid due to the balance between the weight of the object pushing down and the buoyant force pushing up. Objects that are less dense than the fluid they are in will float, while objects that are more dense will sink. This occurs because the buoyant force generated by the fluid is greater than the weight of the object in the case of floating, and vice versa for sinking.
When was Floating Down to Camelot created?
Floating Down to Camelot was created in 1985.
What would happen if the earth rotation slowed down?
If the Earth's rotation slowed down, our we would have less gravity, and when we have less gravity we have things floating around for long nights and long days (also due to the planet slowing down). This can lead to many dis functions and could cause the appearance of anti-matter.
What things does gravity do good?
-- keeps the earth in orbit around the sun -- keeps the moon in orbit around the earth -- keeps you in bed at night -- holds stones down on the ground so they don't go floating around -- brings rain down from the clouds to the ground where the plants are -- holds ladies' skirts down -- holds your food down on the plate -- keeps your coffee in the cup -- helps the dishwater go down the drain -- holds the air down on the earth so we can breathe
What are the 2 forces involved in sinking and floating?
Gravity is pulling down, and Buoyancy is pushing up. When the force of gravity is greater than the buoyant force, objects sink. When the buoyant force is greater than the force of gravity, objects float.
Type the gerund phrase in this sentence Floating down the river on a raft was not Joel's idea of fun?
'Floating' is the gerund. Therefore the gerund phrase is 'Floating down the river on a raft'.
Is there a possibility that gravity doesnt exist?
No. Gravity exists. You have proof of this fact by the way you are held down when you walk instead of floating around.
