How do the changes inside the diver affect its position in the surrounding fluid?
Changes inside the diver, such as changes in buoyancy or density, can affect the diver's position in the surrounding fluid by causing the diver to either sink or float. For example, if the diver becomes less dense than the fluid, they will float to the surface. Similarly, if the diver becomes denser than the fluid, they will sink to the bottom.
Why does a scuba diver need more weight in the ocean than in fresh water?
A scuba diver needs more weight in the ocean than in fresh water because salt water is denser than fresh water, making it more buoyant. The additional weight helps the diver sink and maintain a neutral buoyancy underwater.
Does fish swim with bladder helps it sink or float?
float
When a piece of material is immersed in a liquid of equal density the material will?
Neither float (which it would if the material were less dense) nor sink (which it would if it were more dense). It will "hover" wherever you place it in the liquid, like a scuba diver who has neither negative nor positive buoyancy.
Explain the advantages of being neutrally buoyant when you are a scuba diver.?
Being neutrally buoyant underwater allows a diver to hover effortlessly at any depth without sinking or floating to the surface. This conserves energy and helps prevent damage to fragile marine ecosystems by minimizing contact with the bottom. Additionally, it enhances dive safety by allowing better control of buoyancy and maintaining proper depth.
Why does some mater float while others do not float at all?
Materials float or sink depending on their density. If an object is less dense than the liquid it is placed in, it will float. If it is more dense, it will sink. The buoyant force acting on the object helps determine whether it will float or sink.
What can float and what can sink?
Hmmm. Canned/Tinned fruit will most certainly sink. Most fruits straight off from the tree will float. However, if the fruits are not ripe, they might sink as they are very dense. A coconut will most certainly float. A packet of biscuits (unopened) will float for a long time. Oatmeal flakes will float for a while, then sink to the bottom. Potatoes and carrots will sink. Lettuce and cabbage will float Regards.

Why is bouyancy control important on the surface plus scuba diving?
Buoyancy control is one of the most important skills you will have to master as a scuba diver. On the surface while entering the water you do not want to be too heavy that you will sink while on completing your dive you have to maintain proper buoyancy control so as not to surface prematurely
