why does a ship made of iron not sink, even though iron is more dense than water ??

Answers

Answered by sanjuambastha

Answer:

As most of the space in the boat is taken up by air so it causes the overall density of boat to be lesser than that of water. Whereas, the density of the iron nail is more than that of water. Due to this the iron nail sinks while the boat floats on the surface of the water.
