How do ships float even though they are so heavy? Research • What is buoyancy? – Buoyancy is the upward force caused by a fluid such as water. • What is Archimedes Principle? – The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced water. • What is density? – Density is the mass of a material per unit volume. – Example: The density of steel is 10 times more than the density of wood. Hypothesis I think when the weight of the object is greater than the displaced water‚ it will sink

Lab Report Question- Why do few objects float in water where as others sink? Hypothesis- I think the objects that have a greater density than water will sink. So whichever object has a density more than 1g/cm³ will sink in water. This is known as relative density where the density of the substance is compared to the density of water. Hence‚ the object that has a greater mass: volume ratio than water will sink. Materials- * 1 measuring cylinder * 1 rectangular prism * 1 ball of plasticine
