A body of volume V and density d is completely immersed in a liquid of density p. Then the apparent weight of the body will be:

A

Vdg

B

`V rho g`

C

`V(rho-d)g`

D

`V(d-rho)g`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Apparent weight of the body inside the liquid `=` weight in air `-upthurst
`=mg-V_(i)rho_(l)g=(Vd)g-Vrho_(l)g`
`V_(i)=V`, (When body is immersed completely)
`=V(d-rho)g` (as `rho_(l)=rho)`
