A silver ingot weighing $2.1 kg$ is held by a string so as to be completely immersed in a liquid of relative density $0.8$. The relative density of silver is $10.5$ . The tension in the string in $kg-wt$ is
$1.6$
$1.94$
$3.1$
$5.25$
A large ship can float but a steel needle sinks because of
A block of wood floats in water with $\frac{4}{5}$ th of its volume submerged, but it just floats in another liquid. The density of liquid is (in $kg / m ^3$ )
A solid sphere of density $\eta$ $( > 1)$ times lighter than water is suspended in a water tank by a string tied to its base as shown in fig. If the mass of the sphere is m then the tension in the string is given by
Why does a ship made of iron float while a piece of iron sinks in water ?
A air bubble of radius $1\,cm$ in water has an upward acceleration $9.8\, cm\, s ^{-2}$. The density of water is $1\, gm\, cm ^{-3}$ and water offers negligible drag force on the bubble. The mass of the bubble is$.......gm$
$\left( g =980 \,cm / s ^{2}\right)$
