A body floats in water with $40%$ of its volume outside water. When the same body floats in oil, $60%$ of its volume remains outside oil. The relative density of the oil is

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

Hints : Fraction of immersed part $f = \frac{d}{ρ}$ Case-1, $f = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6$ $0.6 = \frac{d}{1}$ $d = 0.6$ Case-2, $f = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4 f = \frac{d}{ρ _{oil}} 0.4 = \frac{0.6}{ρ _{oil}} ρ_{oil} = 1.5$
