Volume cannot be measured in "grams per cubic centimeter". So the question, as stated makes no sense at all. Please check and resubmit.
if the substance of the element has greater density you can make it float by carving it out so weight over volume of the object is lighter in effective density
A good object that will float is a plastic container. It worked for me. Yes a plastic container will work well it worked in my science class.
The cube has a larger volume.
The object will float or sink.
- A higher surface area will increase heat loss as more heat can be radiated. - It may improve an object's ability to float on water. - Increases drag or air resistance when an object is moving - this is why parachutes are used to slow people down when falling.
no
An object will float in water if it has less density than the water. You can calculate the density of the object by dividing its mass by its volume. For comparison, the density of water is: * 1 gram / cubic centimeter * 1 kilogram / liter * 1000 kilograms / cubic meter
Float. The problem is whether you can find a bathtub big enough for it :D
Chromium, with a density of 7.19 gm/cubic centimeter, will float on liguid mercury, with a density of 13.5 gm per cubic centimeter.
Yes you can. If the object is one cubic meter in volume and it has a mass of less than one metric ton it should float in fresh water.
Calculate the density (mass divided by volume) of your object. If the density is less than that of water - which has a density of about 1000 kg per cubic meter - then it will float; if the density of your object is more, it will sink.
In order to find if it will float, you have to divide mass by volume (pg 18 in your textbook). 65 divided by 77 = 0.8441558. Now, if the object is less than 1.0g/cm3 (pg 19), it means it will float. Answer: Yes, it will float. Note: LOL I was searching for the answer too, hoping someone would answer your quetion, but no no one did. So I gave up and found it by myself. Oh Lol.
If these measurements are made in cubic cemtimeters (volume) and grams (mass) this is true. But, if mass is from the english system, (not really pounds, it is slugs, but who knows what a slug is?) and the volume is cubic feet, this is not true.
An object will float in water if its density is lower than water which means that for an object to float, its density needs to be less than ~1 gram/centimeter^3,
You would need to supply the volume of the container, not the area. Your number of 14 square meters doesn't provide enough information. If you meant to write 14 CUBIC meters, then we can calculate the average density as 0.04286 grams per cubic centimeter,, which means that the object will easily float. If it is floating, then it displaces 600 kg of water, which has a volume (assuming fresh water at standard temperature) of 0.6 cubic meters.
A object weighing 10 pounds with a volume of 1 cubic foot will sink until 0.16 of its volume is under water, and the remaining 0.84 of its volume is above the surface. At that point, the weight of the displaced water is (0.16 cubic foot) x (62.5 pounds/cubic foot) = 10 pounds, and the object will float at that depth, and sink no further.
False
