What else can I help you with?
If you had a object with a density of 1.12 gcm3 would it sink or float in a container of salt water that has a density of 1.35 gmL?
The object would float in the salt water since its density is less than the density of the salt water. Objects with a lower density than the fluid they are placed in will float, while those with higher density will sink.
Can you use density of an object to predict whether it will float or sink in water?
Yes, you can use density to predict whether an object will float or sink in water. If the density of an object is less than the density of water (1 g/cm³), it will float. If the density of an object is greater than the density of water, it will sink.
Would a rock sink more quickly in 10 water or-5 water?
A rock would sink more quickly in water with a density of 10, as higher density liquids provide more buoyant force to objects submerged in them, making it easier for the rock to overcome gravity and sink. In contrast, a liquid with a negative density would not exist in reality, as density is a measure of mass per unit volume and cannot be negative.
Would iron fillings sink or float?
Iron fillings are denser than water, so they would sink when placed in water. Since water has a lower density than iron fillings, the fillings will displace the water and sink to the bottom.
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.
Would 1.4 g-mL float sink or remain suspended in tap water?
It would sink. The density of water is 1g/mL. Anything with a greater density will sink.
Marble has a density of 2.05 would it float or sink in water?
sink
Would an object with a density of 85g per ml float sink or remain suspended in tap water?
It would sink. The density of tap water is approximately 1g per ml. Anything with a greater density will sink.
Would an object with a density of 0.85g per ml float sink or remain suspended in tap water?
Float - The density of water is 1.0, anything with a density less than this will float in water.
Why will a ship of steel sink while a ship of air wont?
It's possible that a ship of steel will not sink as well. But if it will sink, it would be because the density of steel is greater then the density of water, while air's density is lower then water's.
The density of water is equal to 1.0 g cm3 A substance with density equal to 1.3 g cm3 would?
Sink like a rock. Water has a density of 1.0g per cm3. Anything denser will sink and anything less dense will float, assuming it does not dissolve. Most oils range from 0.8 to 0.9 and will float on water. After the beginning of a rain, you can often find oil floating on the water on the road.
The density of water is equal to 1.0 gcm3. A substance with density equal to 1.3 gcm3 would in water.?
sink
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.
If an aquamarines density is 2.63 would it float on water?
No, an aquamarine with a density of 2.63 g/cm^3 would sink in water, as the density of water is 1 g/cm^3. Objects with a density greater than that of water will sink, while objects with a density less than that of water will float.
What would sink first when placed in water?
A sample with high density.
If you had a object with a density of 1.12 gcm3 would it sink or float in a container of salt water that has a density of 1.35 gmL?
The object would float in the salt water since its density is less than the density of the salt water. Objects with a lower density than the fluid they are placed in will float, while those with higher density will sink.
does a coin sink or float?
The reason the pennies sink in water is because of an idea called density. The pennies have more density than the water, and so the pennies sink. Anything with more density than water will sink in water, but other objects that have less density than water will float.
