Question

A solid of density 900kg/meter cube floats in oil as.The oil floats on water of density 1000kg/meter cube. The density of oil could
be :
(a) 850
(b)900
(c) 950
(d) 1050

Answer 1

Answer:

(c) 940Kg/meter cube

Explanation:

As the solid floats on oil the density of oil should be more than the density of the solid (900Kg/meter cube).

Also , as oil floats on water, the density of oil should be less than the density of water (1000Kg/meter cube).

Only option (c) satisfies both these condition.
