    A wooden piece can float both in mercury (of density 13.6 g/cc) and in water (of density g/cc). The ratio of mass of mercury displaced to the mass of water displaced is

    A)  1                                            

    B)  13.6

    C) \[\frac{1}{13.6}\]                                             

    D)  \[\frac{12.6}{13.6}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     If the same body is made to float in different liquids of density\[{{\sigma }_{A}}\]and\[{{\sigma }_{B}}\]respectively. \[{{V}_{p}}={{({{V}_{in}})}_{A}}{{\sigma }_{A}}={{({{V}_{in}})}_{B}}{{\sigma }_{B}}\] \[\frac{{{m}_{A}}}{{{m}_{B}}}=1\]
