The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the motion of similar objects dropped into two different liquids, A and B, and understand how the density of the liquids affects their displacement over a given time period. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: We have two liquids, A and B, with different densities. The density of liquid A is greater than that of liquid B. We need to find the relationship between the displacements \( S_1 \) (in liquid A) and \( S_2 \) (in liquid B) after 5 seconds. 2. **Using the Equation of Motion**: The displacement \( S \) of an object in a fluid can be described by the equation: \[ S = ut + \frac{1}{2} a t^2 \] where \( u \) is the initial velocity (which is 0 when the object is dropped), \( a \) is the acceleration, and \( t \) is the time. 3. **Simplifying the Equation**: Since the initial velocity \( u = 0 \), the equation simplifies to: \[ S = \frac{1}{2} a t^2 \] Given that \( t \) is the same for both liquids (5 seconds), we can express the displacements as: \[ S_1 = \frac{1}{2} a_1 t^2 \quad \text{and} \quad S_2 = \frac{1}{2} a_2 t^2 \] 4. **Analyzing the Forces**: The net force acting on the object when submerged in a liquid is given by: \[ F = mg - \rho V g \] where: - \( m \) is the mass of the object, - \( \rho \) is the density of the liquid, - \( V \) is the volume of the object, - \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity. 5. **Finding the Acceleration**: The acceleration \( a \) can be expressed as: \[ a = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{mg - \rho V g}{m} = g - \frac{\rho V g}{m} \] Since \( V \) and \( g \) are constants, the acceleration depends on the density of the liquid: \[ a = g \left(1 - \frac{\rho V}{m}\right) \] 6. **Comparing Accelerations**: Since the density of liquid A (\( \rho_A \)) is greater than that of liquid B (\( \rho_B \)): \[ a_1 < a_2 \quad \text{(because } \rho_A > \rho_B\text{)} \] 7. **Relating Displacements**: Since displacement is proportional to acceleration (for the same time interval), we have: \[ S_1 \propto a_1 \quad \text{and} \quad S_2 \propto a_2 \] Therefore, since \( a_1 < a_2 \), it follows that: \[ S_1 < S_2 \] 8. **Conclusion**: The correct relation is: \[ S_1 < S_2 \] ### Final Answer: The displacement in liquid A is less than the displacement in liquid B, or \( S_1 < S_2 \). ---
