McKenzie BumgarnerMrs. McGillivary8th Science18 December 2013Today floating is important. Boats float in the ocean, boats can be used for fun and also for delivering things oer sea. There are many factors that contribute to floating. Such as density, buoyancy, solution, solvent, solute and many other things. Density is Is a measure of mass per unit of volume. Density is what helps constrain things float, anything that has a density less than one it floats. The more density the object has, the higher the mass per volume. For example, take a sponge, most of the artificial ones are make out of foamed plastic. Therefore sponges hold or contain a lot of density. If you were to take a sponge and melt it into a plastic soup without the bubbles, it leave behind stay one pound but it will become much denser. Density is probably the most important thing thats needed in give for an object float.1,000.00 kg/m is the equation for the density of water.(chemforkids.com) Buoyancy is the abi lity to float. Buoyancy is first and foremost, a force. buoyancy moves things in an upward movement....
