Two bodies of identical size but made of...

Two bodies of identical size but made of different materials remain immersed completely in water. One of them remains suspended with the help of a thread and the tension acting on that thread is `500gxxg`. The other is anchored to the bottom of the vessel by a thread so that it cannot float up and the tension acting on this thread is `12.5gxxg`. If the volume of each body is `50cm^(3)`, then determine the mass and density of each body.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`550g,11g*cm^(-3),37.5g,0.75g*cm^(-3)`
