Examples

Substances with a specific force of 1 are neutrally buoyant, those with SG greater than one are denser than water, and so (ignoring apparent astriction effects) will bore in it, and those with an SG of beneath than one are beneath close than water, and so will float.

Balsa copse has a specific force of 0.2, so it is 0.2 times (i.e. one fifth) as close as baptize and will float.

Ethanol has a specific force of 0.78, so it is 0.78 times (i.e. three abode to four fifths) as close as water.

Aluminium has a specific force of 2.7, so it is 2.7 times as close as water.

Lead has a specific force of 11.35, so it is 11.35 times as close as water.

Mercury has a specific force of 13.56, so it is 13.56 times as close as water.

Gold has a specific force of 19.3, so it is 19.3 times as close as water.

(Samples may vary, and these abstracts are approximate.)
