$50\, g$ के किसी पदार्थ का आयतन $20\, cm ^{3}$ है। यदि पानी का घनत्व $1\, g\, cm ^{-3}$ हो, तो पदार्थ तैरेगा या डूबेगा ?

Option A
Option B
Option C
Option D

Solution

If the density of an object is more than the density of a liquid, then it sinks in the liquid. On the other hand, if the density of an object is less than the density of a liquid, then it floats on the surface of the liquid.

Here, density of the substance $=\frac{\text {Mass of the substance}}{\text {Volume of the substance}}=\frac{50}{20}=2.5 \,g / cm ^{3}$

The density of the substance is more than the density of water $(1 \,g \,cm^{-3})$. Hence, the substance will sink in water.
