At what depth does a body remain in equilibrium in a liquid? Explain.

The reading of a spring balance when a block is suspended from it in air is $60\,N$. This reading changes to $40\,N$ when the block is immersed in water. The specific density (relative density) of the block is:

Two cubes of size $1.0 \ m$ sides,one of relative density $0.60$ and another of relative density $1.15$ are connected by a weightless wire and placed in a large tank of water. Under equilibrium,the lighter cube will project above the water surface to a height of ........ $cm$.

$A$ dumbbell is placed in water of density $\rho$. It is observed that by attaching a mass $m$ to the rod,the dumbbell floats with the rod horizontal on the surface of water and each sphere exactly half submerged as shown in the figure. The volume of the mass $m$ is negligible. The value of length $l$ is

$A$ solid sphere of density $\rho_s$ which is $\eta$ times lighter than water (density $\rho_w$) is suspended in a water tank by a string tied to its base as shown in the figure. If the mass of the sphere is $m$,then the tension in the string is given by:

$A$ wooden block floating in a bucket of water has $(4/5)$th of its volume submerged. When a certain amount of oil is poured into the bucket,it is found that the block is just under the oil surface,with half of its volume under water and the other half in oil. The density of oil relative to that of water is
