Density is the only element affecting no count number if something floats or sinks. If an merchandise has a a approaches better density than the fluid that's in (fluid can recommend liquid or gas), it particularly is going to sink. If it has a decrease density, it particularly is going to flow. Density is desperate via an merchandise's mass and quantity. If 2 gadgets take in the comparable quantity, yet have one has extra mass, then it additionally has a a approaches better density.

If the weight of the water expelled by an object hitting water is more than the weight of the object it will floats where if it is the other way round it sinks.Thus a light object flots while a heavy thing sinks. However, a boat, even if it is heavier than water floats because it expells more water weight for weight to its weight.
It is said that this solution flashed inthe brain of the Greek scientist Archimedes when he was in a bath tub and he was so impressed that he ran through the street naked declaring his find.

Density. But I like to add that it is not the density of the object per se, but the apparent density of the object due to its shape and mass.
