The object would not float but sink in water.

What is density?

The term density refers to the ratio of the mass to the volume of a body. Now that we know that the density of water is 1 g/cm^3. A substance that would float in water must have a lower density than that of water.

Thus;

Mass of the object = 569 kg or 569000 g

Volume of the object = 74.0 cm x 55.0 cm x 35.0 cm = 142450cm^3

Density of the object = mass/ volume = 569000 g/142450cm^3

=  3.99 g/cm^3

Hence, the object would not float but sink in water.
