Question

An object with mass of 40g has a volume of 80cm^3. Will the object float or sink in water?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Given mass of object=40g

          volume of object=80 cm³

We know that,

$Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}$ ,let it be ρ

Therefore, ρ= 40/80

ρ=0.5 g/cm³

Water has density of 1 g/cm³

Since density of object is less than water

Object will float on water.
