Water exerts an upward buoyant force on immersed objects.
Floating occurs when this force balances the object's weight.

Archimedes' principle relates buoyant force to displaced fluid.
The upward force equals the weight of the displaced fluid.

Gravity attracts masses toward one another.
Near Earth, it pulls objects toward the ground.

Density compares mass with the space occupied.
It is calculated as mass divided by volume.

Gravity continuously accelerates the ball downward.
After slowing to a stop, it begins falling.

Ice has an open crystal structure that occupies more volume.
Its lower density causes it to float on water.

Freezing expands water into a less dense solid structure.
The resulting ice is buoyant in liquid water.

Grooves help tyres maintain contact with the road.
They also channel water away and reduce skidding.
