A Cube made of material having density of 0.9 xx 10^(3) kg m^(-3) floats between water and a liquid of density 0.7 xx 10^(3) kg//m^(3) which is immiscible with water. What part of cube is immersed in water.

Answer»

`1/3`
`3/4`
`2/3`
`3/7`

Solution :Let a be the SIDE of the cube and x be the length dipping in WATER and (a -x) in the liquid
`thereforea^(3)xx0.9xx10^(3)g=a^(2)xx x xx 1000g+a^(2)(a-x)xx0.7xx10g`
`axx0.9=x+(a-x)0.7`
`0.3x=0.2a`
`x/a=2/3`
Thus correct choice is (c).
