    There is not usually a relationship between weight and ability to float because A boat usually is very heavy and it floats.

    No weight does not matter. Because big boats are in water and they do not sink.

    There is not really a relationship. Shape is what really matters.

    Weight does matter because when we measure it we have to see what the measure it is.

    I think that weight does matter because with out the weight we
    will not know if it will sink or
    float.

    Yes there is a relationship between the weight of the object and it's ability to float. It is that some objects may be heavy because they are big and some objects may be light because they are small and it doesn't matter if they are the same objects.

    Weight does not matter .what matters is what it's made of.Like if you put a big cylinder of aluminum it will sink,but if you put a small cylinder of aluminum it will sink.

    Yes, weight matters because metal
    sinks but wood floats.
    Wood is not heave and metal is heave.

    No, I think weight doesn't
    matter because something small
    and something large made out of
    the same material can weigh
    something different.

    The weight does not matter because of the weight of the paper clips.The first object i studied weighed 4 paper clips and sunk.The next object weighed 2 paper clips and sunk also.

    Weight is important because if we did not weigh any thing our bodies would not be stable enough to hold us up .

    I think the weight does not matter because i did the experiment and weighed the objects. Its weird because some objects floated and weighed more then 10 paper clips. I also weighed some that weighed under 5 paper clips and they sunk. I think the materials matter more then the weight of the object.

    Yes, because if the weight is light
    it can float.

    Some things weigh more than others so they sink. some weigh less so it may float others may sink. because the size sometimes matters because it may be small enough to float.
