If steel is more dense than lake water, why can a boat float?

Social Studies
1 answer:
jeka57 [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: The average density of the boat, including the steel and air, is less dense than 1.00 g/cm³.

Explanation: The Archimedes rule of  ''the floating of an object'' states that the amount of water displaced by an object placed in the water has to be big enough to allow the object to float.

Since a good part of the boat's inside contains air, it means that the combination of steel and air is light compared to the average density of water and it causes the boat to float.

jek_recluse [69]
I would have to say during the industrial revolution. Many new inventions were being made and America started taxing goods being shipped to other countries. To remove taxes from certain countries, they moved factories to other countries so avoid Tariffs. It wasn't the colonization of America because America wasn't a country yet. It wasn't the reconstruction or world war 2 because the factories were already there from the industrial revolution.
