  1. Buoyancy Things sink…until they float

  2. Does it Float or Sink? Density is less than 1.0 g/cm3 FLOATS Density is more than 1.0 g/cm3 SINKS

  3. So does wood sink or float? Actually…it does both The wood floats and actually can be found partly under the water and partly above…

  4. So how can we determine how much above and below? Density = .7 g/cm3 .7 x 100 = 70 % 30% 100% - 70% 30 % 70%

  5. So how can we determine how much above and below? Density = .4 g/cm3 .4 x 100 = 40 % 60% 100% - 40% 60 % 40%

  6. So how can we determine how much above and below? Density = .35 g/cm3 .35 x 100 = 35 % 65% 100% - 35% 65 % 35%
