A cubical block is floating in a liquid ...

A cubical block is floating in a liquid with half of its volume immersed in the liquid. When the whole system accelerates upwards with acceleration of `g//3`, the fraction of volume immersed in the liquid will be

A

`(1)/(2)`

B

`(3)/(8)`

C

`(2)/(3)`

D

`(3)/(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Fractional of volume immersed in the liquid `V_("in")=((rho)/(sigma))V` i.e. it depends upon the densities of the blocks and liquid.
So there will be no change in it if system moves upward or downward with constant velocity or some acceleration.
