    An object with uniform density $\rho$ is attached to a spring that is known to stretch linearly with applied force as shown below.When the spring object system is immersed in a liquid of density $\rho_1$ as shown in the above figure, the spring stretches by an amount $x_1\left(\rho > \rho_1\right)$. When the experiment is repeated in a liquid of density $\left(\rho_2 < \rho_1\right)$, the spring stretches by an amount $x_2$. Neglecting any buoyant force on the spring, the density of the object is

    A flat plate moves normally with a speed ${v_1}$ towards a horizontal jet of water of uniform area of cross-section. The jet discharges water at the rate of volume $V$ per second at a speed of ${v_2}$. The density of water is $\rho $. Assume that water splashes along the surface of the plate at right angles to the original motion. The magnitude of the force acting on the plate due to the jet of water is
