A body of volume V floats on water with 1 3 of its volume above the surface. The volume of the object above the surface when floating on a liquid of specific gravity 1.5 is
Options
- A3 ~V 8
- B4 ~V 9
- C5 ~V 9
- D2 ~V 3
Correct answer
C. 5 ~V 9
Step-by-step solution
We have V ^ V = l , V ^ = Volume of substance inside the liquid aligned & So, 2 3 = 1000 & = 2000 3 ~kg / m ^3 aligned When, _ l =1500 ~kg / m ^3, V ^ V = 2000 3 1500 V ^ V = 4 9 V ^ =- V So, volume above the surface V - 4 9 ~V = 5 9 ~V
