Electronics can often survive a dip in water, provided that they are allowed to completely dry out before you turn them back on. Take it apart as far as you can, dry it off for a couple days, THEN turn it back on. It's possible that there has been some permanent damage, but it's amazing that they often recover. Understand that water is an electrical conductor, and when electronics gets wet current is conducted between circuits that weren't intended to operate that way.

How much more does an object weigh after it has been submerged out of water?

Submerged "out-of-water". That is not possible. It is either submerged or it is out of water. Even when an object is submerger or partically submerged it will not weigh less. The physical characteristics (weight) of the object cannot be changed. The object, when placed in water will displace a certain amount of water and the object will float if the weight of the displaced water is more that the weight of the object. The object will then sink if it weighted more that the weight of the water it displaces. That said, the actual weight of the object doesnt change but if a scale were attached to it while hanging in air, it would read greater that when the object is floating or submerged in water.


What happens to the electrical wiring when a house is submerged in flood water?

When a house is submerged in flood water, the electrical wiring can suffer significant damage. Water can corrode metal components, compromise insulation, and create short circuits, posing severe safety risks. Additionally, the electrical system may require complete replacement and must be inspected by a qualified electrician before the home can be safely reoccupied. It's crucial to avoid restoring power until the wiring has been thoroughly assessed and repaired.

Do insurance companies consider a vehicle a total loss if it has been submerged in a lake?

I guess if you had the choice of where to submerge your vehicle, a lake would be the best place. Lakes are usually fresh water and relatively clean; relative to, say, flood waters. But fully or even partially submerged vehicles are NEVER the same after they are recovered, dried out, and cleaned up, especially if they were submerged in salt or filthy water. Some companies will "total" a car that has been immersed in salt or flood waters. When it has been submerged in fresh water, however, totaling depends upon the value of the car: if the remediation costs more than the car is worth, they will total it.
