A ship submerges more as it sails from seawater to river water because of the upthrust.
Explanation:
- The density of seawater is more than that of the river water. This is because of the dissolved salt which is present in seawater.
- Since the upthrust on the upward force which the water or the liquid exerts on the ship is dependent on the density of the water hence in case of seawater it is more.
- In case of river water the density is lesser and as a result of this the upthrust is also less. hence the ship submerges more as it sails from seawater to river water due to increase in the upthrust in seawater.

A ship sink more in river water than in sea water because the density of sea water is more than that of river water due to the presence of impurities. sea water has more density than river water because of its high salt content.
note -
The dead sea has a high salt content and who ever falls into it can float. That is mare is Density of liquid, the more is buoyant force.
