A solid of density D is floating in a liquid of density d. If `upsilon` is the volume of solid submerged in the liquid and V is the total volume of the solid, then `upsilon//V` equal to

A

`(d)/(D)`

B

`(D)/(d)`

C

`(D)/(d+D)`

D

`(D+d)/(D)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

A solid is floating in liquid, so weight of solid body= weight of liquid displaced by immersed part of the body
`VDg=vdg Rightarrow(v)/(V)=(D)/(d)`
