A ship submerges more as it sails from sea water to river water. Explain.​

Answer»

A ship submerges more as it sails from seawater to river WATER because of the upthrust.

Explanation:

  • The DENSITY of seawater is more than that of the river water. This is because of the dissolved SALT which is present in seawater.
  • Since the upthrust on the upward force which the water or the liquid exerts on the ship is dependent on the density of the water hence in case of seawater it is more.
  • In case of river water the density is LESSER and as a result of this the upthrust is also less. hence the ship submerges more as it sails from seawater to river water due to INCREASE in the upthrust in seawater.
