What else can I help you with?
When will an object float in a liquid?
An object will float in a liquid when the density of the liquid is higher than that of the object or when equal. That is to say Upthrust= or >weight of the object
Why does changing the shap of an object have no affect on the density of that object?
Changing the shape of an object does not affect its density because density is determined by the mass and volume of an object, not its shape. As long as the mass and volume of an object remain the same, its density will remain constant regardless of its shape.
Why can you say that the object is denser?
An object is considered denser if it has more mass in a given volume. This means that the particles in the object are packed closely together, resulting in a higher density. You can determine an object's density by dividing its mass by its volume.
How does the density of a liquid affect the density and buoyancy of an object?
The density of a liquid affects the buoyancy of an object by determining whether the object will float or sink in that liquid. If the density of an object is greater than the density of the liquid, the object will sink. If the density of the object is less than the density of the liquid, the object will float.
What is the relationship between the density of the object and the density of the fluid have to be?
An object will float in a fluid if its density is less than the fluid's density. If the object's density is greater than the fluid's density, the object will sink. If the object's density is equal to the fluid's density, it will be suspended at a specific depth.
How do you predict the density of a floating object?
To predict the density of a floating object, you can compare the density of the object to the density of the fluid it is floating in. For an object to float, its density must be less than the density of the fluid. You can calculate the density of the object by dividing its mass by its volume.
How can knowing an object's density help you predict whether the object will float or sink in a fluid?
If an object has less density than water (or whatever liquid you are considering), it will float. And if it has more density then the liguid you are considering it will sinq
What does mass density and volume mean?
An object has a mass, say M It also has a volume, say V A useful relation between the above two is the ratio M/V which is defined as the density of the object. It is the mass of an object whose volume is unity. In solids and liquids, the density remains constant over temperature ranges and pressure ranges. But in gases the density is affected by temperature and pressure.
An object will float if?
density of the object < density of the fluid
How do things sink and float?
it depends on the density of the object and the density of the liquid that it's in. if the density of the object is greater than the density of the liquid, then the object will sink. if the density of the object is lesser than the density of the liquid, the object will float.
How can density be use to determine whether an object will float or sink in a fluid?
When you have the density of both the object and the fluid, just see which has a higher density. If the object has a higher density than the fluid, the object will sink. If the object has a lower density than the fluid, the object will float.
Whether an object will sink or float?
To know this you first need to find the density of the object and the density of the fluid on which the the object shall be kept. If the density of the fluid is more than the object's density then the object will float. The object will sink if the reverse happens.
