Why does a car sink in the ocean?

A car sinks in the ocean primarily due to its weight and density being greater than that of water. When a car is submerged, it displaces water, but the buoyant force acting on it is not enough to counteract its weight, leading it to sink. Additionally, if water enters the car, it increases the overall weight and reduces buoyancy further, hastening the sinking process.


Why does a car sink in water?

A car sinks in water primarily due to its weight and the density of the materials it's made from, which are generally denser than water. When a car is submerged, the buoyant force acting on it is less than the gravitational force pulling it downward. Additionally, as water enters the car, it increases the overall weight and decreases buoyancy, causing it to sink more rapidly.
