Spheres of iron and lead having same mas...

Spheres of iron and lead having same mass are completely immersed in water. Density of lead is more than that of iron. Apparent loss of weight is `W_1` for iron sphere and `W_2` for lead sphere. Then `W_1/W_2` is

A

1

B

Between 0 and 1

C

0

D

`gt 1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`rho=M/V implies rho prop 1/V`
`(rho_l)/(rho_I)=(V_I)/(V_l)` as `rho_l gt rho_I implies V_I gt V_l`
`(W_1)/(W_2) gt 1` As `(V_1 rho_w g)/(V_l rho_w g) gt 1`
