An object of w and density `rho` is submerged in liquid of density `sigma`, its apparent weight will be

A

`(rho-sigma)`

B

`(rho-sigma)//w`

C

`w(1-(sigma)/(rho))`

D

`w(1-(rho)/(sigma))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`W_("app")=W-"upthrust"=W-((W//g)/rho)sigmag=W(1-sigma/rho)`
