    A)  Its true weight is\[V\sigma g\].

    B)  Loss in its weight is\[V\sigma g\].

    C)  Its apparent weight is zero.  

    D)  Its density \[\rho \] is greater than that of liquid\[\sigma \].

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     When a body of density p and volume Vis floating in a liquid of density \[\sigma \] then its apparent weight is zero.
