Answer:it depense.
Explanation: whether a solid to floats or sinks is determined by its density. If the solid is less dense than the liquid, it will float but if denser, it will sink. Whether the solid is known or not, as long as its density is greater than that of the liquid, it will definitely sink. But if it is lesser, it will definitely floats. Remember, density is simply mass over the volume m/v.
Archimedes' principle find that the density of the body must be less than the density of the liquid for the body to float.
ρ_{body} < ρ _{liquid}
Archimeds' principle states that the thrust of a body in a fluid is equal to the weight of the desalted liquid. If we apply the equilibrium equation to a body in a liquid
B- W = 0
B = ρ g V_{liquid}
Where B is the thrust and w the weight of the body, ρ the density of the liquid, g the acceleration of gravity and V the volume liquid
if we use the concept of density of the body
ρ = m / V
W = ρ g V
we substitute in the equilibrium equation
ρ_{liquid} V_{liquid} = ρ_{body} V_{body}
[tex]\frac{V_{liquid}}{V_{body}} = \frac{\rho_{body}}{ \rho_{liquid}}[/tex]
this is the relationship for the body to float in the water
When analyzing this expression, if the density of the body is less than the density of the liquid, the body must float
One way to artificially create the density of the body to be less than that of the liquid is to increase the volume of the body by having a hollow part using the ratio
ρ = m / V
Consequently if increasing the volume of the body the density should decrease, this method is used by the ships.
In conclusion, using Archimedes' principle we find that the density of the body must be less than the density of the liquid for the body to float.
ρ_{body} < ρ _{liquid}
