If a block of wood floats in water, what does that mean about its density?

1) Its density is greater than the density of water
2) Its density is not great enough to displace the water
3) Its density is equal to the density of water
4) Its density is less than the density of water

Respuesta :

Answer: it’s density is less than the water’s density

Explanation:

If something is floating in a liquid, the density is less. If it sinks in liquid, the density is greater than the liquid.

Answer:

Students should realize that if an object weighs more than an equal volume of water, it is more dense and will sink, and if it weighs less than an equal volume of water, it is less dense and will float. Remember that the density of water is about 1 g/cm3. Predict whether the following objects will sink or float.
