Question

We know that metals sink in water. How do large ship made of metal float on water?​

Answer 1

Answer:

ship floats on the concept of buoyancy.

Buoyancy is the force that causes objects to float. It is the force exerted on an object that is partly or wholly immersed in a fluid. Buoyancy is caused by the differences in pressure acting on opposite sides of an object immersed in a static fluid. It is also known as the buoyant force. Buoyancy is the phenomena due to Buoyant Force.

buoyancy is

The upward force applied by the fluid on the object or the body when an object is put in or submerged in the fluid.

Answer 2

Answer:

• We all knew about Brouncy force
• The amount of brouncy force acting upon an object is inversely proportional to the weight of fluid displaced by the object.
• If any object is having more weight it will obviously displace more water and the force of brouncy acting on it will be less.
• If the gravitational force acting upon an object is less than the of brouncy then, the object will shrink in water and the opposite will happen when object will float in water.
• So, now in case of a ship there are a large amount of air inside it (at the part between the surface of ship and water)
• So, this makes the brouncy force acting upon ship more than gravitational force.....heNce, it float in water........ thanks

Good question......
