A 10-Newton object displaces 12 Newtons of water. Will this object sink of float?I'm confused, my guess is sink.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: The object will float.

Explanation:

Balanced force is defined as the force that gets cancelled out when equal forces are acting in the opposite direction. The net force on the system comes out to be 0.

Unbalanced force is defined as the force that does not get cancelled out because unequal forces act on the system in opposite direction. The motion of the object is in the direction of net force.

According to the question:

Object is exerting a downward force of 10 N on the water and water is exerting an upward force of 12 N on water.

As, the upward force by water is more than the downward force by object. So, the object will float on the surface of water.

If the downward force by the object is been more than the upward force, the object will sink.

Hence, the object will float.
Answer 2
Answer: This object would float

What are chemical properties of water?

Answers

The chemical property of water is oxidane. Water is tasteless, odorless at a normal temperature. Etc.
Water is covalently bonded (H-O-H). All simple covalent molecules such as these have low melting and boilong points. Water does not conduct electricity. It reacts with a lot of elements, especially vigorously with alkali metals
