A body weights 5 kg in air. Calculate the apparent weight of the body in water if its density is `2000 kg//m^(3)`.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the apparent weight of a body in water, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the Weight of the Body in Air The weight of the body (W) in air can be calculated using the formula: \[ W = m \cdot g \] where: - \( m = 5 \, \text{kg} \) (mass of the body) - \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) (acceleration due to gravity) ...
