An iron ball has an air space in it, the ball weights ong kg in air and O-6 kg in water. Find the volume of the air space. Density of iron is 7200 kg m ^(-3).

Answer»

Solution :Volume of AIR space = (Volume of iron ball with air sapce- Volume of iron alone )
Loss of weight of ball = ` W_("air") - W_("WATER") `
`""=1-0.6 = 0..4 kg f `
Loss of weight of ball = weight of water displaced
` "" 0.4 ( kg f )= V xx d (kg f )` where
` "" d- ` DENSITY of water
Volume of iron ball with air space = `V = (0.4 )/(1000)= 0.4 xx 10 ^(-3)m^(-3)`
Volume or iron alone = ` ("mass")/( " density")`
` ""=(1)/( 7200)= 0.138 xx 10 ^(-3) m^(3)`
` therefore "" ` Volume of air space =(Volume of iron ball with air space -Volume of iron alone)
` ""= 0.4 xx 10^(-3)- 0.138 xx 10 ^(-3)`
` "" = 0.262 xx 10 ^(-3)m^(3)`
