An object of mass m is floating in a liquid of density `sigma`. If the object is made up of density `rho`, then appare weight of the object in the liquid is

A

` d_A gt d_B gt d_O`

B

` d_O gt d_B gt d_A`

C

`d_B gt d_A gt d_O`

D

` d_A gt d_O gt d_B `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
When the object is in liquid A, the portion of the object above the liquid surface is more compared to that when it is in liquid B, so, the density of the liquid A is greater than that of the liquid B, which is greater than the density of the object.
