A body of mass 50 g is floting in water. What is the apparent weight of body in water? Explain your answer.

उत्तर
Mass of body = 50 g
Apparent weight of body = Weight of body in air – Weight of water displaced by body.
But when a body floats, then the weight of body in air is equal to the weight of water displaced by the body.
=> Apparent weight of the body = 0
