How a ship float on water |
| Answer» <p>Ships are able to displace enough water to float because they are less dense than water.A ship's density is determined by both the material used to build it, such as wood or steel, and the open spaces within the ship. Because air is so much less dense than water, the combination of steel or wood and air is much less dense than the water below it. In fact, air is so much lighter than water that very little of a boat has to become submerged for it to displace enough water to float.</p> | |
