A hollow cube floats because it displaces a volume of water equal to its weight, thanks to the principle of buoyancy. The air inside the hollow structure reduces its overall density, allowing it to be less dense than the water. As long as the weight of the water displaced is greater than or equal to the weight of the cube, it will float. Additionally, the shape of the cube helps distribute the force of buoyancy evenly, contributing to its stability on the water's surface.

Will a perfect cube sink or float?
it depends what the cube is made out of it depends what the cube is made out of
If you have a cube and a sphere that weigh the same but only the cube will float what does that tell you about the volume?
The cube has a larger volume.
Will a solid cube with 6 cm side and a mass of 270 g float?
To determine if the solid cube will float, we need to calculate its density and compare it to the density of water (1 g/cm³). The volume of the cube is (6 \text{ cm} \times 6 \text{ cm} \times 6 \text{ cm} = 216 \text{ cm}^3). The density of the cube is ( \frac{270 \text{ g}}{216 \text{ cm}^3} \approx 1.25 \text{ g/cm}^3). Since the density of the cube is greater than that of water, it will not float and will sink instead.

A 10cmx3 cube is cut in2 1cmx3 cubes are glued together to form the largest possible cube which looks solid from any point on the outside but is hollow inside What is the no of smaller cubes left over?
The equation for the number of 1 cm3 cubes to form a n3 cm3 hollow cube (n>1): 6n2-12n+8 (hint: cubes have 6 faces, 12 edges, and 8 vertices) I'm not sure whether you are asking about a 10 cm3 cube or a 103 cm3 cube. Since you can't divide a 10 cm3 cube into 1 cm3 pieces, I am going to assume you mean a 103 cm3 cube. This cube will yield 1000 1 cm3 cubes. For n=13, 6n2-12n+8 = 866 For n=14, 6n2-12n+8 = 1016 So, with 1000 little cubes, you can form a 13x13x13 cm hollow cube with 134 little cubes left out.
Why are boats hollow?
So that they float.
Why do rubber duckies float?
they float because they do not weigh to much and are hollow
Will a perfect cube sink or float?
it depends what the cube is made out of it depends what the cube is made out of
What is volume of a hollow cube?
Length*width*heigth I don't get the hollow part. That all depends on whether the cube is closed, and how thick the squares are.
If you have a cube and a sphere that weigh the same but only the cube will float what does that tell you about the volume?
The cube has a larger volume.
Will the wooden cube float in water?
It depends on the density of the wood. If the wood is less dense than water, the cube will float. If the wood is more dense than water, the cube will sink.
Can an ice cube float on water?
yes!
Will a chunk of ice float higher than an ice cube?
A chunk of ice will float higher in water than an ice cube only if the ice chunk is larger than the ice cube.
What is the minimum number of ping pong balls needed to get a steel cube to float?
The number of ping pong balls needed to get a steel cube to float would depend on the mass of the steel cube.
Why do hollow things float?
Hollow things float because they displace a volume of water greater than their own weight. This creates an upward buoyant force that keeps them afloat. The empty space inside the hollow object decreases its overall density, allowing it to float on the water's surface.
What happens when you place an ice cube in a beaker of water does it float or sink?
float dua
Why doesn't float an ice cube float in air?
An ice cube will not float in air because air has a lower density than ice, making it less buoyant. Ice is less dense than water, which allows it to float in water due to buoyancy. In air, the buoyant force is not strong enough to support the weight of the ice cube, so it will not float.
