A vessel contains oil of density 0.8 g /cm^(3) over mercury of density 13.6 g/cm^(3). A homogeneous sphere floats with half of its volume in oil and other half immersed in mercury. The density of the material of the sphere in g /cm^(3) is :

Answer»

3.3
6.6
7.2
2.8

Solution :Here LET V be the VOLUME of the SPHERE.
Then Vpg=`(V/2)13.6g+V/2xx0.8xxg`
or `p=(13.6+0.8)/2=7.2g//cm^(3)`
CORRECT CHOICE is (c).
