Objects float if they displace more than their own mass. This means that if when they are put into a liquid the mass (weight) of the volume of the liquid that "has to get out of the way" is greater than the mass of the object, it will float.
An empty glass bottle floats in water because the bottle is filled with air, yet the bottle's shape keeps water out and the mass of the volume of the displaced water exactly equals the mass of the bottle (and the air inside).
What else can I help you with?
What objects will float sink then float?
A submarine
What are objects will sink and what objects float?
Objects that are denser than water will sink, such as rocks, metal objects, and certain types of wood. Objects that are less dense than water will float, such as plastic bottles, rubber ducks, and foam.
What do objects that float have in common?
Objects that are less dense than the environment in which they are immersed will float, unless they are tethered.
Objects float in water because water has an?
Objects that float in water have a lower density than water. -anonymous18_K
What do objects that float all have in common?
Objects that are less dense than the environment in which they are immersed will float, unless they are tethered.
Why do some objects float and others dont?
Because some objects are a lot denser than water so the sink and others are less denser so they float
What objects float in water?
objects that are less dense float to the top.
What type of objects will float on top of water?
The types of objects that will float on water are foil, most rubber, and some plastic.
What is the objects ability to float?
buoyancy
What objects have buoyancy in them?
the objects that are buoyancy are the objects that have the force to rise or to float in any way.
Why do objects on earth do not float?
Objects on Earth do not float because of gravity. The force of gravity pulls objects toward the center of the Earth, causing them to sink. Objects will only float if the force of buoyancy pushing them upward is greater than the force of gravity pulling them downward.
Does an objects shape affect its ability to float?
Yes, an object's shape can affect its ability to float. Objects with larger surface areas relative to their volume, like flat objects or objects with concave shapes, are more likely to float because they displace more water. Objects with irregular shapes or holes are less likely to float because they displace less water due to their shape.
