प्रश्न
A body weighs 300 gf in air and 280 gf when completely immersed in water. Calculate:
(i) The loss in weight of the body,
(ii) The upthrust on the body.
उत्तर
Weight of the body in air = 300 gf.
Apparent Weight of the completely immersed body in water = 280 gf.
(i) Loss in weight of the body = Weight of body in air - apparent weight of the immersed body.
Loss in weight = 300 gf - -280 gf = 20 gf.
(ii) As upthrust on the body = loss in weight
(iii) So uptrust = 20 gf.
