Question

which object would sink in honey, which has a density of 1.4 g/cm³?
object 1 (0.9 g/cm³)
object 2 (1.2g /cm³)
object 3 (0.2 g/cm³)
object 4 (2.3 g/cm³)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall density - sinking rule

An object sinks in a liquid if its density is greater than the density of the liquid.

Step2: Compare densities

The density of honey is $1.4\ g/cm^{3}$.
Object 1 has density $0.9\ g/cm^{3}<1.4\ g/cm^{3}$.
Object 2 has density $1.2\ g/cm^{3}<1.4\ g/cm^{3}$.
Object 3 has density $0.2\ g/cm^{3}<1.4\ g/cm^{3}$.
Object 4 has density $2.3\ g/cm^{3}>1.4\ g/cm^{3}$.

Answer:

Object 4 ($2.3\ g/cm^{3}$)
