Question

A wooden block floats a liquid with 1/4 of it's volume above the liquid.find the density of the liquid given that the density of the wood is 900 gm–³
​

Answer 1

675g/cm³ is the density of the liquid

Here we have given that

density of wood be ρ.

the volume of the block be V          

The volume of the block =1/4 v

The volume of the immersed block (v) =V-1/4V=3/4V

We know the weight of the block = the weight of the water displaced by the submerged part of the block.

i.e. V x ρ x g    

= 3/4 x900g/cm³                            

= 675g/cm³

Density is a measure of mass divided by the volume of an object. Defined as mass per unit volume. here from the above equation we have substituted the given value and  we got the answer as 675g/cm³
