Why do some objects float and others dont?
Because some objects are a lot denser than water so the sink and others are less denser so they float
Why does some food float and some food not?
Whether an object floats or not depends on its density. Density is the amount of mass in a volume, or mass divided by volume. If and object's density is less than that of water, it will float in water, and if an objects density is higher than that of water, it will sink in water. raw material (fishballs will sink down);but it will floats when it is cook. why
Does sponge sink in water?
Objects float or sink because of their density. An example of an object with low density is a sponge, as it has loads of air bubbles in it, and will float. An example of an object with high density is a brick. This is because the brick doesn't have any air trapped in it, it is "packed in", and is more dense than water, therefore it will sink.
Why do some solids sink and some solids float?
Anything heavier than water sinks; anything lighter than water floats. Or, another way to say it: anything with a higher density than water (water weighs about a gram per cubic centimeter), or a higher specific gravity than water, sinks. If the object weighs less than the weight of water that it displaces, then it floats.
Do all fruits float in water.?
== Yes because the volume of water displaced by a cherry is enough that the buoyant force of the water is able to counteract the force of the cherry's weight.==
