a body without air space of mass 150 gm and volume 250cm^3. Will it float or sink? |

Answer» Here, mass of the body, M = 150g volume of the body, V = 250 cm3 density of the body, \(d = \frac{M}{V} = \frac{150\,g}{250\,cm^3}\) \(= 0.6 \frac{g}{cm^3}\) Since the density of the body \(\left(0.6 \frac{g}{cm^3}\right)\) is less than the density of water \(\left(1 \frac{g}{cm^3}\right),\) the body will float on water. |
