MCQ

$Assertion$ : Specific gravity of a fluid is a dimensionless quantity.

$Reason$ : It is the ratio of density of fluid to the density of water

✓

✓

Answer

Correct option: A.

If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.

a
Specific gravity of fluid

$ = \frac{{{\rm{density of fluid}}}}{{{\rm{density of water}}}}$

It is a ratio.
