BUG: calling np.sqrt on an array containing only floats, but of dtype object, will crash #27870

Describe the issue:

np.sqrt is one of the only operation that crashes on a nd array of dtype object containing only floats.

Furthermore, the error yielded is very unclear, mentioning that floats does not support sqrt (which is not true).

The example speak for itself.

Reproduce the code example:

import numpy as np
feature = np.array([1.2], dtype="object")
print(np.sum(feature))
# 1.2
print(np.sqrt(feature))

Error message:

AttributeError: 'float' object has no attribute 'sqrt'
The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: loop of ufunc does not support argument 0 of type float which has no callable sqrt method
