Question

When two Cubical solid blocks A&B of Same masses are
Completely immersed in Water A displaces more water than
that of B. Identify the block having greater density.
​

Answer 1

The density of block B is more than that of block A

Explanation:

• Both the blocks A and B have the same masses.
• Both blocks when immersed, A displaced more water than B. Which means block A has more volume than block B.
• We know that density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$
• Since masses of both blocks are the same density will be inversely proportional to the volume
• A has more volume than B. Hence, the Density of block B is more than that of block A
