Floating Body

A motor boat going down stream comes over a floating body at a point A . 60 minutes later it turned back and after some time passed the floating body at a distance of 12 km from the point A .Find the velocity of the stream assuming constant velocity for the motor boat in still water.

Statement-1 : When two soap bubbles of unequal radii are connected by a tube, the smaller bubble decreases in size. Statement-2 : In floating, weight of the floating body is equal to the weight of displaced fluid. Statement-3 : When ice converts into water its volume decreases.

Statement-1 : For rotational equilibrium of floating bodies, meta centre must always be lower than centre of gravity of the body Statement-2 : When a floating body is slightly tilted from equilibrium , centre of buoyance shifts. The vertical line passing through new centre of buoyance and initial vertical line meet at a point, which is called meta centre.

A : The apparent weight of a body floating on the surface of a liquid is zero. R : The net force on a body floating on the surface of a liquid is zero.

For a body floating on water, apparent weight is equal to :

A body is just floating on the surface of a liquid. The density of the body is the same as that of the liquid. The body is slightly pushed down. What will happen to the body?
