A metallic sphere is made of an alloy of metels 'P' and 'Q' having specific gravities (or relative densities) 20 and 2, respectively. The sphere weighs 120 g_(wt) in air and 90 gwt in water. Find the percentage of the mass of metal 'P' in the alloy.

Answer»

Solution :(i) ARCHIMEDE's principle.
(ii) R.D `=(W_(1))/(W_(1)-W_(2))`
(iii) Volume of the METALLIC sphere = volume of metal P+volume of metal Q
(iv) Density `=("mass")/("volume")`
