उत्तर
The density of water = 1 g Cm-3
(a) Density of body A = 500 kg m-3 = 500 × = 0.5 = 0.5 g Cm-3
Density of body A ¡s less than density of water hence A will float on water

Prove that the loss in weight of a body when immersed wholly or partially in a liquid is equal to the buoyant force (or upthrust) and this loss is because of the difference in pressure exerted by liquid on the upper and lower surfaces of the submerged part of body.
