Why do you float back to the top when you dive under water in your swimming pool?
Because your body is less dense than the water. More dense bodies go down, in fact you don't float back to the top, the water falls down not leaving room for your body but up to the surface.
Why does a body float in water?
A body floats in water because it is less dense than water.
Why boiled rice sinks in water and dead body floats?
Rice is more dense than water , while the human body is very less dense than water
What body of water has the lowest density?
Surface mixed zone
Do humans float on water?
YES!!! Human density is 0.97 of 100 for water. So since we are less dense than water , we will float. Added to which nature gives us a pair of 'water wings' , they are called 'lungs'. Yes!!! you can lie on the surface of water, but because our density is slightly less than watert , most of the human organism will immerse in water, but enough is left above the surface of water, for us to breath.
Where is the most dense body of water in the world located?
JESUS
What body of water is the most dense?
Water is most dense in the liquid phase, specifically at 4° C.
How does salty water help you float?
The density of ocean (sea) water is approximatley 1.025; the density of the human body is approximately 1.00; less dense objects float on top of or near the surface of denser liquids. The saltier the water or the more body fat you have (body mass index), the better you float. Cheers Malcolm
Why do you float when you lay on your back in the water?
This happens because your body is less dense than water. It is the very same reason why a helium filled balloon will float upward in air. Helium is less dense than air, and so the more dense air settles under the balloon and moves it up; the balloon is 'seeking' the surface of the air mass that it is floating in.Another way of thinking about this: If you could measure out the amount of water that weighs exactly the same as your body weight, you will find that the volume of that water is less than the volume of your body. Same weight in a smaller volume-- that means the water is more dense than your body. The density of water is really called specific gravity, but the concept is the same.__________________NOTE: This turns out to be very useful as a way of measuring over-all body fat, or the Body Mass Index. Some people can be standing in 3 or 4 feet of water, exhale the air from their lungs as completely as possible, and have time to float down to the bottom of the pool and lay there for a moment before coming up for air. Others cannot do this, no matter how hard they exhale. The difference is the amount of body fat. body fat is less dense than muscle, so it works to keep the body at or near the surface.
Why the human living body is drowning in the water but why dead body of the human is swimming on the surface of the water give the scientific reason?
There is oxygen in the body which is lighter than water thus the body rising up to the surface of the water
How can you determine whether a soild object is more dense or less dense than water?
You can put a uniform object into water.If it sinks density is higher than water,if floats lesser than water.If you can place anywhere in water,density is equal to water.
What is the vertical surface of a body of water called?
a water fall
