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

A

fall vertically with an acceleration ` gms ^( -2 ) `

B

fall vertically with no acceleration

C

fall vertically with an acceleration ` g ( (d - rho ) / ( d )) `

D

fall vertically with an acceleration ` g ( ( rho )/ ( d )) `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Apparent weight = Actual weight - up thrust
` vdg' = vdg - veg, g' ( ( d - e ) /( d )) g `
