A piece of iron when placed on a block of wood, this makes the wood to float lower in the water. If the iron piece is suspended beneath the wood block, would it float at the same depth? Or lower or higher? You know that pressure difference at different levels inside the liquid causes buoyancy.

The total weight of a piece of wood is 6 kg in the floating state in water its 1/3 part remains inside the water on this floating solid what maximum weight is to be put such that the whole of the piece of wood is to be drowned in the water

A cubical block of wood of edge 3 cm floats in water. The lower surface of the cube just touches the free end of a vertical spring fixed at the bottom of the pot. Find the maximum weight that can be put on the block without wetting it. Density of wood = 800 kgm^-3 and spring constant of the spring =50Nm^-1 Take g=10ms^-2 . ,

Radius of a glass capillary is 0.5 mm . Find the height of the column of water when it is held vertical in water . The density of water is 10^(3)kg m^(-3) and the the angle of contact between glass and water is 0^(@),g=9.8ms^(-2) and the surface tension of water T=0.0727Nm^(-1) .

The length l , breadth b, and thickness t of a block of wood were measured with the help os a measuring scale. The results with permissible errors ( in cm) are l = 15.12 +-0.01, b = 10.15+-0.01 , and t = 5.28 +- 0.01 . The percentage error in volume up to proper significant figures is
