$A$ sphere of solid material of relative density $9$ has a concentric spherical cavity and floats just submerged in water. If the radius of the sphere is $R$,then the radius of the cavity $(r)$ is related to $R$ as:

  • A
    $r^3 = \frac{8}{9} R^3$
  • B
    $r^3 = \frac{2}{3} R^3$
  • C
    $r^3 = \frac{\sqrt{8}}{3} R^3$
  • D
    $r^3 = \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}} R^3$

$A$ heavy hollow cone of radius $R$ and height $h$ is placed on a horizontal table surface,with its flat base on the table. The whole volume inside the cone is filled with water of density $\rho$. The circular rim of the cone's base has a watertight seal with the table's surface and the top apex of the cone has a small hole. Neglecting atmospheric pressure,find the total upward force exerted by water on the cone.
