  • A
    greater for the cube than the sphere
  • B
    greater for the sphere than the cube
  • C
    same for the sphere and the cube
  • D
    greater for the object that is submerged deeper

Two solids $P$ and $Q$ float in water. It is observed that $P$ floats with half of its volume immersed and $Q$ floats with $\frac{2}{3}$ of its volume immersed. The ratio of densities of $P$ and $Q$ is

$A$ cube having a side of $10 \ cm$ with unknown mass $m$ and a $200 \ g$ mass were hung at two ends of a uniform rigid rod of $27 \ cm$ length. The rod along with the masses was placed on a wedge,keeping the distance between the wedge point and the $200 \ g$ weight as $25 \ cm$. Initially,the masses were not in balance. $A$ beaker is placed beneath the unknown mass and water is added slowly to it. At a given point,the masses were in balance and half the volume of the unknown mass was submerged in the water. (Take the density of the unknown mass to be greater than that of water,the mass did not absorb water,and the water density is $1 \ g/cm^3$). The unknown mass $m$ is . . . . . . $kg$.
