प्रश्न

A piece of iron weighs 44.5 gf in air. If the density of iron is 8.9 × 103, find the weight of iron piece when immersed in water.

योग

उत्तर

Density of iron = 8.9 × 103 = 8900

Density of water = 1000

Weight of iron when immersed in water is given by

Weight of iron in water = Weight of iron in air × `(1 - "density of water"/"density of iron")`

= `44.5  "gf" xx (1 - 1000/8900)`

= 39.5 kgf
