A body weights 75 gf in air, when completely immersed in a liquid and 67 gf when completely immersed in water. Find the density of the liquid

Answer» Given, weight of the body in air, `w_(1)=75" gf"`
Weight of the body in water, `w_(2)=67` gf
Weight of the body in the given liquid, `w_(3)=51` gf
`:.` Apparent loss of weight of the body in the given liquid `=w_(1)-w_(3)=75-51=24` gf
Apparent loss of weight of the body in water `w_(1)-w_(2)-75-67=8` gf.
Relative density of the liquid `=(w_(1)-w_(3))/(w_(1)-w_(2))=(24)/(8)=3`
`:.` Density of the liquid = 3 gf `cm^(-3)`
