Question

орло, то е Чuestion below. )
A solid weighs 5 N in air, 3 N in water and 4 N in some other liquid. The specific gravity of the liquid is
Options
a 0.5
b 1.5
c О.9
d None of these​

Answer 1

Answer:

b)1.5

Explanation:

Specific Gravity = Weight in Air/(Weight in Air - Weight in Water)

So S=1.5 / (1.5–1.1)

S=3.75

Weight difference =1.5–1.1= 0.4 N = Buoyant force of water

Buoyant Force in water(Fb) = density of water x g x volume of body(Vb)

0.4= 1000 x 9.81 x Vb

Vb = 0.4/9810 cubic meter
