the speed of the object (ball in this case) would depend on the force applied, but the higher the density of matter the more force would need to be applied to generate the same speed.

What is the speed of a falling ball with the specific gravity of 3.4 in water?
The Specific Gravity of 3.4 water units means that the ball weighs 3.4 Kilograms. (Water has the Specific Gravity of 1.0, which means that 1Litre of water weighs 1 Kilogram) However, this has no bearing on the speed of the ball unless we know the height from which the ball is dropped (I.E how far it has to fall) and at what point in time the measurement of the balls speed is required. The ball will take approximately 1.2 seconds to reach its terminal velocity (the speed at which it can no longer accelerate), in which time it will have travelled (without a calculator) about 5 metres. It is only at this point that the balls final speed can be calculated Hope this helps, but cant do more without knowing more variables.
When will a ball filling with water sink?
The ball will sink when the weight of the water inside the ball plus the weight of the ball is greater than the weight of the amount of water that would fit inside the ball.
Does rubber ball float on oil?
it will, unless the specific gravity of the ball is greater that the oil, if it is, it will sink. But I doubt that it is
What is the diameter of 150kg metallic ball if specific gravity is 12?
First, you have to calculate the ball's volume. Just divide the mass by the specific gravity. Then use the formula for the volume of a sphere. Solve for r (radius). The diameter is twice the radius.
What force makes a golf ball sink in water?
Gravity.
Why does a clay ball sink in water?
relative density and gravity
Is gravity needed for buoyancy?
Gravity is needed for buoyancy as if there was no gravity then there would be no need for buoyancy, the need for buoyancy is to counteract the pull of gravity so you can stay at the surface of a liquid such as water. If there was no gravity then there would be no need to counteract it. I hope this the answer you needed. What if there is a ball of water in space and a cork made dof wood is inserted carefully into the ball. Would it 'rise' from the center of the ball towards the surface or not???
Think of a specific type of human cell that would need to control the amount of water inside of it When would it need to have a lot of water in it and when might it need to get rid of water?
body in general, to me the Eye Ball. The Brain as a organ also.
Why does a bastetball go flat if you leave it out on a winter day?
The air molecules inside the basketball become less active as they cool off and don't bounce off each other or the inside of the ball as much, which lets gravity, and the materials the ball is made of, determine the shape of the ball to a greater extent. Gravity pulls all the parts of the ball straight down tending to make it flat against the ground that is supporting it, and the rubber and plastic of the ball tend to keep it round, but smaller than when the air inside is pushing against it.
Can the gravity inside a space station be controlled?
The larger the object, the more 'space' is displaced, and thus, the greater the gravity. The Moon displaces less 'space' than the Earth, so the Moon has less gravity. The space station displaces very little space AND its' shape does not lend itself to taking advantage of the spacial displacement, so it doesn't result in very much gravity. Stand in a swimming pool and hold a beach ball under the water: the pressure of the water on the ball is a simulation of gravity. Hold a tennis ball under the water: far less pressure, yes? Now, hold something with the exact same collective mass as the beach ball (lets say one of those 'noodle' things the kids play with) and you'll have far less pressure on it than on the beach ball. Why? It has the same mass as the beach ball, so why isn't there the same amount of pressure (gravity) on it? Because the 'shape' of it does not lend itself to take advantage of the gravitational pressure. Gravity can, however, be simulated with inertia. If the ship spins... centripical force and all that.
Is it better to have a bowl of water or a water bottle for a hamster?
Definitely a bottle of water. Specific hamster bottles have a little ball inside and when the hamster licks it the water comes out. This means that a hamster can have the water when he wants. A bowl of water is likely to get spilled and can also be quite dangerous for the hamster.
How does gravity affect volleyball?
When the ball is in the air, gravity brings the ball back down.
