Define density . How is density related to floating and sinking in water


Harshmallick: Per unit mass is know as density. The object sinks because it has less surface area and more surface area flots the object.

Density is said to be volume per unit mass. If an object weighs more than an equal volume of water, it is more dense and will sink, and if it weighs less than an equal volume of water, it is less dense and will float.

NaviMaan: Actually I don't know hw to correct ...
kjc1: l say that it is not brainliest answer
yashg05090: Exactly
karthikasokan16: density is the amount amount of matter present per unit volume in a substance. if the density of the object is less than the density of liquid then the substance floats if the density of the object is greater than that of the liquid the substance sinks
avoz: Objects that are more dense than water will not float in that water (adding salt to water increases its density and so becomes more bouyant). ... Density is said to be volume per unit mass. That is the space the object occupies in relation to its weight.
avoz: if an object weighs more than an equal volume of water, it is more dense and will sink, and if it weighs less than an equal volume of water, it is less dense and will float. Remember that the density of water is about 1 g/cm3
Yagami: Density is mass per unit volume. You have typed wrong.
kritika2727: yes it is wrng
subhan10: the ratio of mass and volume of a subtance is known as its density. if there is more density of the subtance so it will sink and if there is less density so it will float

Hey here is your answer...
Density- it is defined as mass per unit volume.

i.e.,its the ratio of mass and volume.
d=M/V
if an object is more dense it sinks and if it is less dense then it floats.
hope it helps
