it is hydewin
Answer: That probably would depend on the type of wood (e.g. ironwood vs balsa.?Answer: No wood is as heavy as iron. Iron would be heavier. Iron has a density of about 8 gram per cubic centimeter; would is usually lighter than water (density less than 1), but some woods are a little heavier than water.
Length times width times height (lwh) is a way to figure out volume. If you try to do it with water displacement, the wood will adorn the water and ruin the calculations.
If the density of the block is less than the density of water, then the block will float. Density of water is close to 1 gram per cubic centimeter. So measure the block and calculate its volume (Length x Width x Height). Use a scale to find the block's mass. Then divide mass/volume to calculate density. If you've measured in grams and centimeters, then the units will be g/cm³, then compare this to 1 g/cm³.
-- The aggregate density of the wood block is 700/1000 = 0.7 the density of water. -- So, as soon as the wood has displaced 0.7 of its volume in water, it has displaced its entire weight in water, and floats. -- The wood floats with 0.7 of its volume below the surface and 0.3 of its volume above it.
Density = mass/volume = 5.4g/(9*2*6) cm3 = 5.4/108 cm3 = 0.05 g/cm3. Balsa, one of the least dense woods, has a density of 0.16 g/cm3 which is more than 3 times the "density" of your wood! So have you discovered a super-light wood species?
It is because wood is lighter than water
Wood mostly floats in water because it has a lower density than water. it is NOT lighter than water, it is LESS DENSE. water has a density of 1.0 g/cm cubed. that means wood usually has a density of .99 or less. But, not all wood floats, keep that in mind
No because bark is made of wood and wood is brown and brown is darker then a waters color. So no. Bark is darker then wood.
no
Cork is lighter than most types of wood and would therefore float higher (or better) in the water.
No. It doesn't matter how heavy a block of wood is, it depends on the density of the wood. Generally wood floats as the density of wood is lighter than the density of the water, so it would float.
Something has neutral bouyancy if it stays in the water wherever you put it, only if it has the same density as the water - there is no cause for it to float or sink than the volume of water it has displaced. If its density is more, as for a stone, it must be heavier than that so it sinks. For wood, it is lighter so water from above drops down as the wood rises.
It depends on the wood. Most wood is lighter, some much lighter (e.g. balsa).However, some are heavier. English oak (quercus robur)and lignum vitae are classic examples.
It depends how much ice and how much balsa wood you have.
Depends on the type of wood you are comparing the acrylic to. Woods have different densities depending on water content (ie kiln dry woods, etc...). Acrylics are polymer based products that are custom designed and depending on its strength, can be lighter than most natural woods or just as heavy.
Because that piece of charcoal is lighter that the water, so it floats.
Less expensive than solid wood, lighter weight to work with, lighter weight finished project, can be matched with other wood, easier to cut than some solid woods
