A piece of wax floats in brine. What fraction of its volume will be immersed?
R.D. of wax = 0.95, R.D. of brine = 1.1.

उत्तर
Relative density of wax = 0.95
Relative density of brine = 1.1
(Density of wax/ Density of brine) = fraction submerged
0.95/1.1 = fraction of volume submerged
Fraction of volume submerged = 0.86
