$A$ hollow cone floats with its axis vertical up to one-third of its height in a liquid of relative density $0.8$ and with its vertex submerged. When another liquid of relative density $\rho$ is filled in it up to one-third of its height,the cone floats up to half its vertical height. The height of the cone is $0.10 \ m$ and the radius of the circular base is $0.05 \ m$. The specific gravity $\rho$ is given by

  • A
    $1.0$
  • B
    $1.5$
  • C
    $2.1$
  • D
    $1.9$

Two bodies having volumes $V$ and $2V$ are suspended from the two arms of a common balance and they are found to balance each other. If the larger body is immersed in oil (density $d_1 = 0.9 \ gm/cm^3$) and the smaller body is immersed in an unknown liquid,the balance remains in equilibrium. The density of the unknown liquid is given by ......... $gm/cm^3$.

$A$ machine is blowing spherical soap bubbles of different radii filled with helium gas. It is found that,if the bubbles have a radius smaller than $1 \, cm$,then they sink to the floor in still air. Larger bubbles float in the air. Assume that the thickness of the soap film in all bubbles is uniform and equal. Assume that the density of soap solution is same as that of water $\left(= 1000 \, kg \, m^{-3}\right)$. The density of helium inside the bubbles and air are $0.18 \, kg \, m^{-3}$ and $1.23 \, kg \, m^{-3}$,respectively. Then,the thickness of the soap film of the bubbles is .......... $\mu m$ (Note: $1 \, \mu m = 10^{-6} \, m$)
