Sample Questions

1multiple choice

Which of these objects will float in water?

Show answer

Leaf

A leaf will float in water because it is light and has air trapped in it. Iron nails, stones, and coins are heavy and will sink.

2multiple choice

What happens to an empty steel bowl when placed in water?

Show answer

It floats

An empty steel bowl floats because it traps air inside, making it lighter than the water it displaces. Even though steel is heavy, the air makes it float.

3multiple correct

Which of these factors affect floating and sinking? (Select all correct answers)

Show answer

Weight of the object, Shape of the object

Both weight and shape affect whether an object floats or sinks. Light objects tend to float, and changing shape (like with aluminum foil) can make the same object float or sink. Color and container size don't affect floating or sinking.

4multiple choice

What happens to aluminum foil when it is pressed tightly into a ball?

Show answer

It sinks

When aluminum foil is pressed tightly into a ball, it sinks because it becomes denser and traps less air. The same foil floats when spread out or made into a cup shape.
