The density of a body is $800\ kg/m^3$. Will it sink or float when dipped in a bucket of water ? $(Density\ of\ water=1000\ kg/m^3)$.

Academic Physics NCERT Class 9

The density of the body is $800\ kg/m^3$ which is less than the density of the water. So, the body will float after being dipped in a bucket.
