प्रश्न

A body weighs 20 gf in air and 18.0 gf in water. Calculate the relative density of the material of the body. 

योग

उत्तर

Weight of body in air , W1 = 20 gf

Weight of body when completely immersed in water W2 = 18 gf

R.D. of body = `W_1/(W_1 - W_2) xx "R.D. of water"`

R.D. of body = `20/(20 - 18) xx 1`

R.D. of body = 10
