An iron block is submerged into the wate...

An iron block is submerged into the water vessel and it sinks to the floor. this is due to :

A

The weight of the block is less the weight of water displaced the block

B

The density of water is higher the density of the block

C

The vessel is not so deep that block can float

D

The weight of water displaced the block is less than the weight the block

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
If the weight of the water displaced by a block is lesser than the weight of the block, then the block will sink in the water.
