$A$ jar is filled with two non-mixing liquids $1$ and $2$ having densities $\rho_1$ and $\rho_2$ respectively. $A$ solid ball,made of a material of density $\rho_3$,is dropped in the jar. It comes to equilibrium in the position shown in the figure. Which of the following is true for $\rho_1, \rho_2$ and $\rho_3$?

  • A
    $\rho_1 < \rho_3 < \rho_2$
  • B
    $\rho_3 < \rho_1 < \rho_2$
  • C
    $\rho_1 > \rho_3 > \rho_2$
  • D
    $\rho_1 < \rho_2 < \rho_3$

$A$ machine is blowing spherical soap bubbles of different radii filled with helium gas. It is found that,if the bubbles have a radius smaller than $1 \, cm$,then they sink to the floor in still air. Larger bubbles float in the air. Assume that the thickness of the soap film in all bubbles is uniform and equal. Assume that the density of soap solution is same as that of water $\left(= 1000 \, kg \, m^{-3}\right)$. The density of helium inside the bubbles and air are $0.18 \, kg \, m^{-3}$ and $1.23 \, kg \, m^{-3}$,respectively. Then,the thickness of the soap film of the bubbles is .......... $\mu m$ (Note: $1 \, \mu m = 10^{-6} \, m$)

$A$ wooden block floating in a bucket of water has $(4/5)$th of its volume submerged. When a certain amount of oil is poured into the bucket,it is found that the block is just under the oil surface,with half of its volume under water and the other half in oil. The density of oil relative to that of water is

The weight of an empty balloon on a spring balance is $w_1$. The weight becomes $w_2$ when the balloon is filled with air. Let the weight of the air itself be $w$. Neglect the thickness of the balloon when it is filled with air. Also,neglect the difference in the densities of air inside and outside the balloon. Then:
