Two sphere S(1)andS(2) made of the same ...

Two sphere `S_(1)andS_(2)` made of the same material and having radii 2r and r, respectively, are immersed in water and suspended from either end of a beam as shown in figure.
The beam is in equilibrium when `x:y=1:3` Determine the density of the object.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Apparent loss in weight of the object
= True weight - weight of the object in water
= upthrust acting on the object.
According to the principal of moment of force, `F_(1)d_(1)=F_(2)d_(2)`.
