Question

A log has a density of .8 g/cm³. What will happen to this log in freshwater, which has a density of 1.0 g/cm³?

It will sink.
It will float.
It will move deeper.
It will decrease in density.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Objects with a lower density will float while objects with a higher density will sink.

Since 0.8g/cm³ < 1.0g/cm³,

The log will float in freshwater.
