It depends on the shape. A solid sphere of any object with a density greater than 1 g/cm3 or 1 kg/m3 would not float in water. Any object with a sufficiently large bowl shape would float regardless of density.
Yes, a block of wood would typically float on top of water because wood is less dense than water. This means that the weight of the wood is less than the weight of the water it displaces, causing it to float.
It depends on the density of the block and the water. If the block's overall density is greater than the water, it will sink. However, if the block is less dense than water, it will float, regardless of the holes.
It depends on the density of the block. If the block is less dense than water, it will float. If it is more dense, it will sink.
if it was a cubick foot of water and the glass was the same and weighs less then the water than yes
A wax block will float in water because wax is less dense than water. When placed in water, the buoyant force acting on the wax block is greater than its weight, causing it to float.

The weight of the block at the time of the drop would ensure that the block goes into the water pretty deep depending on the size and weight of the block. After going into the water in the first instance, it would then float.

Most wood (blocks) float because most wood is less dense than water. However, there are some hardwoods that are denser than water, a block made from one of these would sink.
Blocks made of materials like wood or plastic would typically float in water, while blocks made of materials like metal or concrete would sink. The density and composition of the block determine whether it will sink or float in water.
No, a block of ash wood will not float in methanol. Wood is denser than methanol, so it will sink in the liquid.
A block has a mass of 550 g and a volume of 650 cm 3 . What is the block's density, and will it sink or float in freshwater?
A 4 gram block will most likely float in water since the density of most common materials is higher than that of water (1 g/cm^3). To determine if it will sink or float, we would need to know the block's volume and density.
A solid block with a lower density than water will float in a container of water. This is because the buoyant force acting on the block is greater than its weight, causing it to rise to the surface and float.
