Question on: JAMB Physics - 1994
If a solid X floats in liquids P of relative density 2.0 and in liquid Q of relative density 1.5, it can be inferred that the
A
weight of P displaced is greater than that of Q
B
weight of P displaced is less than that of Q
C
volume of P displaced is greater than that of Q
D
volume of P displaced is less than that of Q
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: A
R.d (\alpha) weight of liquid displaced
(\frac{\text {R.d of P}}{\text {R.d of Q}}) = (\frac{\text{weight of p displaced}}{\text{weight of Q displaced}})
(\frac{2}{1.5}) = (\frac{\text {weight of p displaced}}{\text {weight of Q displaced}})
