When two corks , one small and one big are taken into a vessel filled with water and released which cork will come fast on the surface of water ? Why ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Bigger cork , because as the weight of it is higher the mass of displaced water due to it ,so the buoyant force also increases on it .Hence ,its speed is faster.
