Q

what causes an object to float

A

the buoyancy and if the weight equals the buoyant fore or not, and volume the larger equals more buoyancy and more displaced fluids

Q

what causes objects to sink

A

the more mass and the lack of buoyancy

17
Q

how does a balloon float

A

if the force of gravity on the balloon is weaker than the buoyant force, low density paired with large amounts of greater density and the gas(helium)and greater volume.
