15)
A student noted down following observations in his note book. (1) Weight of the stone in air = 272 g wt (2) Weight of the stone in water = 192 g wt (3) Weight of the stone in salty water = 176 g wt. The relatively density of the salty water must be:
11/12
11/17
13/17
6/5
16)
Which of the following statements is true in the case of law of floatation?
Weight of the floating body is equal to the weight of fluid displaced.
The centre of gravity of the floating body and the centre of buoyancy act along the same vertical line.
If the floating body is of non uniform density, then the centres of gravity and buoyancy do not coincide.
All of these.
17)

More in sea water.
Less in sea water.
Equal in the two cases.
Zero in sea water but not so in tap water.
19)
