Spheres of iron and lead having same mass are completely immersed in water. Density of lead is more than that of iron. Apparent loss of weight is w₁ for iron sphere and w₂ for lead sphere, Then, w₁ w₂ is
Options
- A>1
- B=1
- Cbecome 0 and 1
- D=0
Correct answer
C. become 0 and 1
Step-by-step solution
We have, Relative density = Actual weight Loss of weight (R D)_ iron = w w₁ or w₁= w (R D)_ iron (R D)_ lead = w w₂ or w₂= w (R D)_ lead w₁ w₂ = (R D)_ iron (R D)_ lead >1
