A beaker is partly filled with water, the beaker and the contents have a mass of 50 gm. A piece of wood having a volume of 5 cc. is floated in the beaker. The density of wood is `0.8(g)/(c.c)` the mass of the beaker and its contents:

A

50g

B

54g

C

46g

D

56.25g

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
