What else can I help you with?
Do toenails sink or float?
Toenails float because of low amount of density
Can cardboard float?
Cardboard can float in water depending on its thickness and density. If the cardboard is thick and has low density, it is more likely to float. However, if it is thin and has high density, it may sink.
Do ALMONDS float or sink?
Almonds generally float in water because of their low density. This can be useful for sorting out almonds that are less fresh or may be spoiled.
Will a feather sink in water?
No, a feather will typically float on the surface of water due to its low density.
Dependent variable on a float or sink experiment?
The dependent variable in a float or sink experiment is whether the object being tested floats or sinks in water. This variable is influenced by factors such as the object's density and volume, which determine its buoyancy in the water.
Why some objects float and some sink?
Those object which have low density then water like wood, ice etc. can flow and those with high density get sink..
Does a piece of paper sink?
Not by it's self you have to have something with it
An object most likely sink in water if it has low density?
The lower an objects density the less likely it is to sink in water. Objects with a higher density than water will sink if placed in it while objects with a lower density than water will float if placed in it.
Why some objects sink and some float?
Those object which have low density then water like wood, ice etc. can flow and those with high density get sink..
Can you use volume alone to predict whether an object will sink or float?
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.
Will a stone sink or float in water?
Most stones will sink in water because they are denser than water. However, some types of pumice stones are porous and can float on water due to their low density.
Will cork sink or float in mercury?
Cork floats on mercury due to its low density compared to mercury. Mercury has a very high density, so most materials, including metals, will sink in it. Cork, being less dense, will float on the surface of mercury.
