Question

an ice cube is floating in a liquid such that the two third part of cube is inside the liquid of density of ice cube is 900 kg/M3 find the density of liquid​

Answer 1

Answer:

volume of the cube be V and the fraction of cube outside water be f.

Thus, volume of ice inside water = volume of water displaced =(1−f)V

Under equilibrium,

Weight of ice = Weight of water displaced

⟹Vρ iceg=(1−f)Vρ waterg

⟹(1−f)= 9/10

⟹f= 1/ 10

Thus, the percentage of volume outside water =10%
