A spring balance reads $200 \,gF$ when carrying a lump of lead in air. If the lead is now immersed with half of its volume in brine solution, what will be the new reading of the spring balance? specific gravity of lead and brine are $11.4$ and $1.1$ respectively ........... $gF$
$190.4$
$180.4$
$210$
$170.4$
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
A sphere of relative density $\sigma$ and diameter $D$ has concentric cavity of diameter $d$. The ratio of $\frac{D}{d}$, if it just floats on water in a tank is:
A vessel containing water is given a constant acceleration a towards the right, along a straight horizontal path. Which of the following diagram represents the surface of the liquid
A uniform rod of density $\rho $ is placed in a wide tank containing a liquid of density ${\rho _0}({\rho _0} > \rho )$. The depth of liquid in the tank is half the length of the rod. The rod is in equilibrium, with its lower end resting on the bottom of the tank. In this position the rod makes an angle $\theta $ with the horizontal
Iceberg floats in water with part of it submerged. What is the fraction of the volume of iceberg submerged if the density of ice is ${\rho _i} = 0.917\,g/c{m^3}$.
