weight of P displaced is greater than that of Q

weight of P displaced is less than that of Q

volume of P displaced is greater than that of Q

volume of P displaced is less than that of Q

Answer Details

R.d

α

weight of liquid displaced

$\frac{R.d of P}{R.d of Q}$ = $\frac{weight of p displaced}{weight of Q displaced}$

$\frac{2}{1.5}$ = $\frac{weight of p displaced}{weight of Q displaced}$
