Why a ship can float and coin sinks in water?

Answers

Answered by rekha4naren

Answer: Archimedes' buoyancy principle states that buoyant force -- what keeps the ship afloat -- is equal to the weight of water that is displaced when the ship enters the ocean. ... The displaced water around a coin weighs less than the coin, so the coin will sink.
