A cubical block is floating in a liquid with half of its volume immersed in the liquid. When the whole system accelerates upwards with acceleration of $g/3,$ the fraction of volume immersed in the liquid will be
$0.5$
$\frac{3}{8}$
$\frac{2}{3}$
$0.75$
What is buoyant force ?
A hollow sphere of mass $M$ and radius $r$ is immersed in a tank of water (density $\rho$$_w$ ). The sphere would float if it were set free. The sphere is tied to the bottom of the tank by two wires which makes angle $45^o$ with the horizontal as shown in the figure. The tension $T_1$ in the wire is :
Mumbai needs $1.4 \times 10^{12} L$ of water annually. Its effective surface area is $600 \,km ^2$ and it receives an average rainfall of $2.4 \,m$ annually. If $10 \%$ of this rain water is conserved, it will meet approximately
An ice block floats in a liquid whose density is less than water. A part of block is outside the liquid. When whole of ice has melted, the liquid level will
A cubical block is floating in a liquid with one fourth of its volume immersed in the liquid. If whole of the system accelerates upward with acceleration $g / 4$, the fraction of volume immersed in the liquid will be ..........
