An object weights `m_(1)` in a liquid of density `d_(1)` and that in liquid of density `d_(2)` is `m_(2)`. The density of the object is

A

`d = (m_2 d_2 - m_1 d_1)/(m_2 - m_1) `

B

`d = (m_1d_1 - m_2d_2)/(m_2 - m_1)`

C

`d = (m_2d_1 - m_1d_2)/(m_1 - m_2)`

D

`d = (m_1d_2 - m_2d_1)/(m_1 - m_2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`d = (m_1d_2 - m_2d_1)/(m_1 - m_2)`
