BuoyancyHardQuestion 6434

Question

Weight of object in liquid (W_apparent), in air (W). Relative density of object:
  1. A
    W/(W−W_app)
    Correct
  2. B
    W_app/W
  3. C
    (W−W_app)/W
  4. D
    W×W_app

Correct answer

W/(W−W_app)

Explanation

RD = ρ_obj/ρ_water = W/Buoyancy = W/(W−W_apparent) = W/(W−W_app).
