Question

what makes objects float on water?​

Answer 1

Answer:

An object floats when the weight force on the object is balanced by the upward push of the water on the object. ... If the weight force down is larger than the upward push of the water on the object then the object will sink. If the reverse is true then the object will rise – rising is the opposite of sinking

Answer 2

$\huge\mathcal\red{ANSWER}$

An object floats when the weight force on the object is balanced by the upward push of the water on the object. The upwards push of the water increases with the volume of the object that is under water; it is not affected by the depth of the water or the amount of water.

the weight force down is larger than the upward push of the water on the object then the object will sink. If the reverse is true then the object will rise – rising is the opposite of sinking
