Detailed Solution

A solid is put in a bucket of water. It floats just below the surface of the water. The density of the object is the same as the density of water.
Some things float on the surface of the water, while others sink to the bottom. Items that are heavier than water sink, whereas objects that are lighter than water will float. When the leaves of a tree fall into a pond, they float. A paper boat, thin twigs, and other lightweight materials float on water. If an object's density is less than that of water, it will float.
