If an object has low density it floats on water,but if an object has high density it sinks to the bottom of the water. i hope this helps.......

It has to do with the buoyant mass and the ratio of the object's and fluid's density. Consider the following buoyant mass equation, where mobj=true mass of object, rho(f)=fluid density, rho(obj)=density of object

buoyant mass=mobj(1-(rho(f)/rho(obj)))
If rho(obj)=rho(f) the object is weightless, if rho(f)>rho(obj) the object floats, and if rho(f)
If its volumetric density exceeds 1 gm/cm^3. Glass bottles float, so do steel ships.

Think about this one. Why do boats float? Cruise ships are really heavy but they still float? Why? Its all about they density. The density of water is 1 g/cc. Think about it.
