if an object has a density of 2.5 g/cm3 and it is placed in a tank of water, will the object float or sink in water

Sagot :

[tex]\text{Given that,}\\\\\text{Density of the object,}~~ \rho = 2.5 ~ \text{g~cm}^{-3} = 2500 ~\text{kg} ~\text{m}^{-3} \\\\\text{Density of the object is greater than the density of water,}~ \left(\rho_w = 1000 ~ \text{kg} ~ \text{m}^{-3}\right) .\\\\\text{Hence, the object will sink in water.}[/tex]
