Find the apparent weight of a metallic block of density $5 \text{ g cm}^{-3}$ and dimensions $5 \text{ cm} \times 5 \text{ cm} \times 5 \text{ cm}$,in water.

$A$ large ship can float but a steel needle sinks because of

$A$ homogeneous solid cylinder of length $L$ $(L < H/2)$, cross-sectional area $A$ is immersed such that it floats with its axis vertical at the liquid-liquid interface with length $L/4$ in the denser liquid (density $2d$) and $3L/4$ in the lighter liquid (density $d$). The lower density liquid is open to the atmosphere having pressure $P_0$. Then, the density $D$ of the solid is given by:

$A$ cube of side $40 \ cm$ is floating with $\frac{1}{4}$th of its volume immersed in water. When a circular disc is placed on the cube, it floats with $\frac{2}{5}$th of its volume immersed in water. The mass of the disc is (in $kg$)

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 ......... $gm/cm^3$.

$A$ wooden block is floating on water kept in a beaker. $40 \%$ of the block is above the water surface. Now the beaker is kept inside a lift that starts going upward with acceleration equal to $g / 2$. The block will then
