Question 1 Report

A solid cube of side 50cm and mass 75kg floats in a liquid with \( \frac{1}{3} \) of its height above the liquid surface. The relative density of the liquid is?

Answer Details
Volume of liquid displaced
=  2 3 (0.5) 3
Mass of liquid displaced = mass of floating cube = 75kg
Density of liquid =  m a s s v o l u m e
=  75 ( 7 3 ( 0.5 ) )  × 3
= 0.9 × 103kgm − 3
R.D of liquid =  ( 0.9 ) ( 1.0 )  × 103
= 0.9
