The average density of Jupiter is 1.326 g/cm3
The average density of a human is 1.01 g/cm3

Therefore, a human would float on Jupiter since human density < Jupiter density.

What is likely to happen is the outer layers of Jupiter are not very dense much less than 1 g/cm3. Near the center of Jupiter the density would be much greater due to the pressure from all the atmosphere above it pushing and compressing it.

So a human body would end up floating somewhere in the middle of Jupiter, it would not be at the "surface." It would also not be able to sink to the center.

Would the density of white oak sink or float if it is placed in water?

The density of the wood would not be affected by being placed in water. However, the wood itself, with a density of about 0.77 gm/cm3 , would float.


Which planet could float on a giant planet?

The planet Saturn could theoretically float on giant planet like Jupiter because Saturn has a lower density than Jupiter due to its composition being mostly gas and liquid. This would mean that Saturn would have the ability to &quot;float&quot; in the atmosphere of Jupiter, similar to how a boat floats on water.

Would a 10g weight float?

A 10g weight would sink in water as it is heavier than the water it displaces. Objects float when they are less dense than the liquid they are placed in.

Can a covered wagon float on water?

No, covered wagons are not designed to float on water. They were intended for use on land and would likely sink if placed in water due to their weight and construction.


Would a paper clip sink or float?

A paper clip is denser than water, so it would sink if placed in water.


What what would happen to Saturn if it were placed in water?

Theoretically, the planet Saturn would float when placed in water because it has an average density that is less than the density of water. On the other hand, there is probably not enough water in the solar system to permit the experiment to be performed. If you choose not to consider the planet as a whole, the atmosphere would float on the water but the rocky core would sink like a stone.


Does feldspar float in water?

No, feldspar does not float in water because it is more dense than water. When placed in water, feldspar will sink to the bottom.


Do tissue float?
