How Steel Boats Float: A Buoyant Force Demonstration!

The video explains how objects like steel boats can float on water despite being made of dense materials. Using a ceramic bowl as an analogy, it demonstrates that the key to floating is the average density of the object and the air inside it being less than the density of the water displaced. The video also warns about the risks of increased density if water enters the boat, which can cause it to sink.
