If an object is less dense than the water around it, it will float. Because salt water is denser than freshwater, some things float more easily in the ocean—or extremely salty bodies of the water, such as the Dead Sea. You can make your own dense water by adding salt to tap water.

How can a piece of wood floating on water illustrate the condition of lowest potential energy and maximum
drek231 [11]

Answer:

By minimizing the height of the body's center of gravity relative to its center of buoyancy

Explanation:

In hydrostatics, the equilibrium state of a floating body relates to either a maximum or minimum of the potential energy.An equilibrium is stable when the potential energy is minimum.Minimizing the height of the floating body's center of gravity relative to its center of buoyancy attains a stable equilibrium configuration.

What is the mass of an atom that has 9 protons, 11 neutrons, and 10 electrons
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: By looking at the periodic table, you will see that Fluorine has 9 protons. Since the number of electrons equal the number of protons, Fluorine has 9 electrons as well. Meanwhile, it's mass number of 19, minus 10 neutrons, gives you 9 protons or electrons. Hence, the atom would be Fluorine.
