A

water increases in A

B

water decreases in A

C

liquid in B decreases

D

liquid in B increases

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
If we have m gram of ice which is floating in a liquid of density 1.2. It will displaces volume `(m_("cc"))/(1.2) lt m_("cc")`. After melting it occupies `m_("cc")`.

A cylindrical tank has a mass of the 200 kg and inner radius of r= 2.0 m. The tank has no bottom and is directly bolted to the floor [ B_(1) and B_(2) are bolts in the figure]. The tank is connected to an elevated open tank and both the tanks are filled with a liquid as shown in the figure. Various heights are as shown. When a small wooden cube of specific gravity 0.6 is placed in the upper tank, it floats while remaining exactly half submerged. Calculate the force applied by the bolts in holding the thank.
