What else can I help you with?
Would they float with ease?
The specific object or material of interest needs to be specified to determine if it would float with ease. Factors like density, shape, and volume play a significant role in determining whether an object will float or sink in a given liquid.
Does volume alone determine if a object can float or sink?
No, volume alone does not determine if an object can float or sink. It depends on the density of the object compared to the density of the fluid it is placed in. If the object is less dense than the fluid, it will float; if it is denser, it will sink.
Does volume affect whether an object will sink or float?
Yes, the volume of an object can affect whether it will sink or float. In general, an object with a greater volume will have greater buoyancy, making it more likely to float in a fluid. However, other factors such as density and the density of the fluid will also play a role in determining whether an object will sink or float.
Why might an object float in water?
Since density is proportional to it's mass and the ability to float is inversely proportional to it's volume, an object that's heavy will sink and an object that's light should float. An object that has some surface volume should float, while an object that has little surface volume should sink.
What relates an object's mass and volume and determines whether an object will sink or float?
The object's density relates its mass and volume, determined by dividing mass by volume. If an object's density is greater than that of the fluid it is placed in, it will sink; if less, it will float.
If you had an object with a density of 1.12gcm cubed would it sink or float in a container of salt water that has a density of 1.35gcm cubed?
Sinking or floating also depends on the density of the object
Would an object that is 3.7 Cm3 float in water?
That depends on the object's density, not just on its volume. For example, the object you mention would float if it has a mass of less than about 3.7 gramms.
Would a 0.85g object float sink or remain suspended in tap water?
That depends entirely on the volume of the object
When would the displacement of water not be a good method for finding the volume?
It would not be good for finding the volume of an object that is less dense than water. Such an object would float and therefore would not displace its full volume worth of water.
How much water should you use to make an object float?
The amount of water needed to make an object float depends on the object's density and volume. The volume of water displaced by the object should be equal to or greater than the volume of the object for it to float. Adding more water will increase the buoyant force.

Can an object with the volume of 77 grams and a mass of 65 grams float or sink?
It will float.
How buoyancy helps a boat float?
Firstly you must understand that buoyancy is the very thing that allows anything to float. Buoyancy is defined as the force applied to an object by the fluid it is in, the force is quivalent to the volume of the fluid that is being displaced by that object Example say you have an object with a volume equal to 1 metre cubed sumbersed in water since the object is displacing 1 m^3 of water, 1000Litres = 1 m^3 , and 1L is approximately equal to 1kg. therefore the buoyant force would be 1000 kg of force upwards. the more fluid is displaced by an object, the more buoyant that object will be
