A spring balance reads 10 kg when a bucket of water is suspended from it. What is the reading on the spring balance when (i) an ice cube of mass 1.5 kg is put into the bucket (ii) an iron piece of mass 7.8 kg suspended by another spring is immersed with half its volume inside the water n the bucket. Relative density of iron = 7.8
