In making an alloy, a substance of specific gravity `s_(1)` and mass `m_(1)` is mixed with another substance of specific gravity of the alloy is

A

`((m_1 + m_2)/(s_1 + s_2))`

B

`((s_1 s_2)/(m_1 + m_2))`

C

`(m_1 + m_2)/((m_1)/(s_1) + (m_2)/(s_2))`

D

`((m_1)/(s_1) + (m_2)/(s_2))/(m_1 + m_2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`S = (m_1+ m_2)/(V_1 + V_2) = (m_1 + m_2)/((m_1)/(s_1) + (m_2)/(s_2))`.
