To solve the problem of finding the loss of weight of a solid when immersed in a liquid at temperature \( t^\circ C \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the initial conditions At \( 0^\circ C \), the loss of weight of the solid when immersed in the liquid is given as \( W_0 \). This loss of weight can be expressed in terms of the volume of the solid and the density of the liquid at \( 0^\circ C \). ### Step 2: Write the formula for loss of weight The loss of weight \( W_0 \) at \( 0^\circ C \) can be expressed as: \[ ...
