4) Will the ship ride higher in a ocean or lake ? Why? 5) Petroleum geologist and engineers often flood oil wells with salt water to increase production. Why ? Concept to Investigate: Density, Buoyancy, Archimedes principalMaterials: Salt, Eggs (2), ContainerMORTONDensity is the mass to the volume ratio of a substance, If the density of an object is less than the density of the fluid in which it is placed, theobject will float. If the density of the object is greater than the density of the fluid, it will sink. Because of the presence of dissolved salts,salt water has higher density than freshwater. Archimedes principal states that an object is buoyed by a force equivalent to the weight of thewater it displaces. Knowing this, what will happen to a ship or fish as it moves from salt water to fresh water or vice versa?Place a fresh egg in a container full of tap water and record its position. Slowly stir salt in to the beaker until the egg rises and suspendedabove the bottom of the beaker but below the surface of water.1) What should be added to raise the egg to the surface?2) What should be added to cause the egg to sink to the bottom once again ?3) Why did the egg rise when the salt was added tot he system ?4) Will the ship ride higher in a ocean or lake ?
