Question

(5) The volume of an object is 20 cm3 and the mass is 50 g. The density of water is 1 gm 3. Will the object
float on water or sink in water?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given: Volume of object = 20 cm3

Mass of object = 50 g

Density of object = Mass of object / Volume of object = 50 / 20 = 2.5 g /cm3

Now, we know the density of water = 1 g/cm3

Since, the density of object > density of water, therefore, the object will sink in water.
