A solid body of mass 150 g and volume 250 `cm^3` is put in water. Will the body float or sink?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the solid body will float or sink when placed in water, we need to calculate its density and compare it with the density of water. ### Step-by-Step Solution: **Step 1: Calculate the Density of the Solid Body** The formula for density (\( \rho \)) is given by: ...
