How do you know an object has a density greater than water?
If an object placed in water sinks - then it has a density greater than water.
What density does an object have to have to sink in water?
A density greater than that of water (which varies with temperature).
What does volume and mass have to do with flotationn?
The density of an object is its mass divided by its volume. If that is less than the density of water, it will float; if greater it will sink
What will happen if an object has a density greater than water?
If inserted into the water as a solid "blob" then it will sink - unless it dissolves first. But, if because of the shape, the mass of water displaced by whole object is greater than the mass of the object, it will float - just as ships made of metal do.
What is greater than 4.8 or 4800?
[object Object]
If an object sinks when being placed in water its density is?
To sink, the object's density must be greater than the density of water.To sink, the object's density must be greater than the density of water.To sink, the object's density must be greater than the density of water.To sink, the object's density must be greater than the density of water.
An objects density must be greater than what for the object to float?
An object's density must be less than that of the fluid it is placed in for the object to float. If the object's density is greater than that of the fluid, it will sink.
What does the density have to be greater than for an object to float?
It has to be greater than the density of the fluid in which it is to be floated.
How do you know an object has a density greater than water?
If an object placed in water sinks - then it has a density greater than water.
An object in a fluid will sink if the?
density of the object is greater than the density of the fluid.
Does the tendency for an object to sink or float have to do with the object's density?
Yes. The object will sink if its density is greater than the fluid it is placed in.
What determines whether one will sink or float in another?
The density of an object is what determines whether it will sink or float in another substance. If the object's density is greater than the substance it's placed in, it will sink. If the object's density is less than the substance it's placed in, it will float.
What is the density on fluid of an object sinking?
The density of the fluid affects whether an object will sink or float. An object will sink in a fluid if its density is greater than the density of the fluid. If the object's density is less than the fluid's density, it will float.
Why does a coin sink and a boat float?
An object will sink if it has greater density than water (or whatever liquid it is place in); it will float if it has less density than the liquid.An object will sink if it has greater density than water (or whatever liquid it is place in); it will float if it has less density than the liquid.An object will sink if it has greater density than water (or whatever liquid it is place in); it will float if it has less density than the liquid.An object will sink if it has greater density than water (or whatever liquid it is place in); it will float if it has less density than the liquid.
What is the density of object compared to the density fluid when it sinks?
The density of an object that sinks is greater than the density of the liquid in which it sinks.
What is the effect of placing an object with greater density than water in a bucket of water?
what is the effect of placing an object with a greater density than water in a bucket of water
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.
