Question

A column of water 60 cm high supports a 32 cm column of
an unknown liquid. What is the density of the liquid?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

More than water that is I think it's twenty eight

Answer 2

Answer:

1.875 × 10³ kg / m³

Explanation:

Given :

Two different height of water and unknown liquid are 60 cm and 32 cm respectively.

We know :

Density of water ρ₁ = 10³ kg / m³

We know :

P = ρ g h  or

ρ₁ h₁ g = ρ₂ h₂ g

= > ρ₁ h₁ = ρ₂ h₂

= > ρ₂ = ρ₁ h₁ / h₂

Putting values here we get :

ρ₂ = 0.6 × 10³ / 0.32 kg / m³

= > ρ₂ = 1.875 × 10³ kg / m³

Therefore , density of unknown liquid is 1.875 × 10³ kg / m³.
