Question

when a body is immersed in a liquid ,does it undergo an apparent loss in its weights ? justify

Answer 1

Yes. It's just apparent loss but not actual loss. The water exerts some pressure on the objects which are immersed in it. This is know as buoyant force. Due to this force exerted by the water , the object loses its weight apparently, but the actual weight of the object remains same.
