Current Question (ID: 10445)

Question:
$\text{The reading of a spring balance when a block is suspended from it in the air is 60 N. This reading is changed to 40 N when the block is submerged in water. The specific gravity of the block, therefore, must be:}$
Options:
  • 1. $3$
  • 2. $2$
  • 3. $6$
  • 4. $\frac{3}{2}$
Solution:
$\text{Let m be the mass of the block.}$ $W = 60 \text{ N}$ $\Rightarrow mg = \rho_b \times V \times g = 60 \ldots\ldots\ldots (1)$ $\text{When the block is submerged in water,}$ $(\rho_b - \rho_w)V \times g = 40 \ldots\ldots\ldots (2)$ $\text{From (1) and (2), we get,}$ $\Rightarrow \frac{\rho_b - \rho_w}{\rho_b} = \frac{2}{3}$ $\Rightarrow \rho_b = 3\rho_w$ $\Rightarrow \frac{\rho_b}{\rho_w} = 3$
