  2. B3535 %
  3. C1010 %
  4. D1111 %

Correct answer

C. 1010 %

Step-by-step solution

Let the volume of ice-berg is VV and its density is ρρ. If this ice-berg floats in water with volume Vin{V}_{in} inside it, then

Vin\sigmag=Vρg{V}_{in}\sigmag = Vρg

σ=\sigma = density of water

⇒Vin=(ρσ)⋅V⇒ {V}_{in} = \left(\dfrac{ρ}{σ}\right) \cdot V

⇒Vout=V−Vin⇒ {V}_{out} = V - {V}_{in}

=[σ−ρσ]V=1000−9001000V= \left[\dfrac{\sigma - ρ}{σ}\right]V = \dfrac{1000 - 900}{1000}V

=V10= \dfrac{V}{10}

⇒Vout/V=0.1=10⇒ {V}_{out} / V = 0. 1 = 10 %
