At a given place where acceleration due to gravity is `g m//s^(2)` a sphere of lead of density d `kgg//m^(3)` is gently released in a column o liquid of desnsity `rho kg/m^(3)`. If `dgtrho`, the sphere will

A

Fall vertically with an acceleration ‘g’ m/se`c^2`

B

Fall vertically with no acceleration

C

Fall vertically with an acceleration `g((d-p)/d)`

D

Fall vertically with an acceleration `g(p/d)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Apparent weight = actual weight – upthrust force
`Vdg.=vdg-Vpg`
`rArrg.=((d-p)/d)g`
