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

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

As solid is floating in the liquid,
`:.` Weight of the solid body `=` Weight of liquid displaced by immersed part of the body
or `VDg=V..dg` or `(V.)/(V)=(D)/(d)`
