Let y fraction of its volume be hollow.
Density of the shell = 5x103 kg/m3
Then
weight of the shell,
V-yV) x (5 x 10 to the power 3) x 9.8
Weight of the water displaced = Vx103x9.8
Loss in the weight of the shell = Weight of the water displaced
1/2 x (V-yV) x 5 x 10 to the power 3 x 9.8 = V x 10 to the power 3 x 9.8
On solving we get,
y = 3/5
