How can you appreciate the technology of making ships float,using the material which sink in water?

Floating and sinking is affected and determined by several factors that include:

● density of material

● shape

As we know that If the weight of volume displaced by object is more than the weight of the object, then the object will float on the surface. And If the weight of volume displaced by object is less than the weight of the object,then the object will sink in the liquid. This is the main reason behind the floating of ships.

The property that manufactures of ships use to make ships float on water, is by designing the right shape. The shape is designed in away that ensures that the amount of water that the ship displaces is just enough to get the ship submerged slightly.

If the weight of liquid displaced by ship is more than the weight of ship then only the ship will float on water.

Look at the figure ,it is clearly shown that Buoyancy force is enough to make the ship float on water.
