A cube of external dimension $10\  cm$ has an inner cubical portion of side $5\  cm$ whose density is twice that of the outer portion. If this cube is just floating in a liquid of density $2\  g/cm^3$, find the density of the inner portion

A solid cube and a solid sphere both made of same material are completely submerged in water but to different depths. The sphere and the cube have same surface area. The buoyant force is

A ball is made of a material of density $\rho$ where $\rho_{oil} < \rho < \rho_{water}$ with $\rho_{oil}$ and $\rho_{water}$ representing the densities of oil and water, respectively. The oil and water are immiscible. If the above ball is in equilibrium in a mixture of this oil and water, which of the following pictures represents its equilibrium position?

A candle of diameter $ d$ is floating on a liquid in a cylindrical container of diameter $D $  $(D>>d)$  as shown in figure. If it is burning at the rate of $2$ cm/hour then the top of the candle will

Acontainer of large surface area is filled with liquid of density $\rho$ .Acubical block of side edge $a$ and mass $M$ is floating in it with four-fifth of its volume submerged. If a coin of mass $m$ is placed gently on the top surface of the block is just submerged. $M$ is
