    A body floats with one third of its volume outside water and three fourth of its volume. outside another liquid. The density of another liquid is:

    A)  \[\frac{9}{4}gm/c{{m}^{3}}\]                    

    B)  \[4.9\text{ }gm/c{{m}^{3}}\]

    C) \[\frac{8}{3}gm/c{{m}^{3}}\]                     

    D)  \[\frac{3}{8}~gm/c{{m}^{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    For water \[\frac{volume\text{ }inside\text{ }water}{total\text{ }volume~~~}=\frac{density\text{ }of\text{ }body}{density\text{ }of\text{ }water}\]                                 \[\frac{1-\frac{1}{3}}{1}=\frac{density\text{ }of\text{ }body}{1}\] density of body     \[=\frac{2}{3}\] For liquid \[\frac{Volume\text{ }inside\text{ }liquid~}{Total\text{ }volume}=\frac{density\text{ }of\text{ }body}{density\text{ }of\text{ }liquid}\]                                 \[\frac{1-\frac{3}{4}}{1}=\frac{2/3}{d}\]                                 \[\frac{1}{4}=\frac{2}{3d}\] \[\Rightarrow \]                               \[d=\frac{8}{3}gm/c{{m}^{3}}\]
