Water Flashcards
How do you make a solid float in water
Make is less dense than the liquid
What happens if th solid
Is more
Dense than the water
It sinks
What is density and what is it measured in
The number of particles in 1m3 measured in kg/m3
What is volume measured in
M3
How do we alter density
Temperature mixing with another material and putting air pockets in
What happens to water level when an object is placed in
It rises because the water wants to stay flat so is pushing the object to level up
What is water displacement
The movement of water because of object in or under Water
What does the volume of
Displaced water and the volume of
Object have in common
They equal each other
What is buoyancy
Upward
Force of water on an object
What is the downward force of water on object
Weight
What is Archimedes principle
Upward force is equal to
Weight of liquid the object displaces
