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
-
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
The correct answer is: A
Explanation
R.d \(\alpha\) weight of liquid displaced\(\frac{\text {R.d of P}}{\text {R.d of Q}}\) = \(\frac{\text{weight of p displaced}}{\text{weight of Q displaced}}\)
\(\frac{2}{1.5}\) = \(\frac{\text {weight of p displaced}}{\text {weight of Q displaced}}\)
