MCQ
Two cubical blocks identical in dimensions float in water in such a way that $1$ st block floats with half part immersed in water and second block floats with $3 / 4$ of its volume inside the water. The ratio of densities of blocks is ..........
  • $2: 3$
  • B
    $3: 4$
  • C
    $1: 3$
  • D
    $1: 4$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$2: 3$
a
(a)

$\frac{3}{4} V \times \rho_2 \times g=\frac{1}{2} V \times \rho_1 \times g$   $\left\{\begin{array}{l}V=\text { Volume of block } \\ \rho_1=\text { density of liquid } 1 \\ \rho_2=\text { density of liquid } 2\end{array}\right.$

$\Rightarrow \frac{\rho_2}{\rho_1}=\frac{2}{3}$
