$A$ body having volume $V$ and density $\rho$ is attached to the bottom of a container as shown. The density of the liquid is $d$ (where $d > \rho$). The container has a constant upward acceleration $a$. The tension in the string is:

  • A
    $V[d(g+a) - \rho(g+a)]$
  • B
    $V(g+a)(d - \rho)$
  • C
    $V(d - \rho)g$
  • D
    None of these

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