Since lead is more dense than water, and the density of a substance will always be the same no matter what size, than (1)how come a very small piece of lead can float on water????
(2)Is this only because of surface tension? Or is there more?
(3) Is density the only key to whether or not a substance will float in the presence of another, or is the bouyant force totally different than just density?!?!?!?!
