Question

A cubical block of side 0.5m floats on water with 30% of its volume under water. What is the maximum weight that can be put on the block without fully submerging it under water ?
(Take density of water = 103kg/m3)
  1. 65.4kg
  2. 87.5kg
  3. 46.3kg
  4. 30.1kg

A
30.1kg
B
65.4kg
C

M=ρL[0.5×0.5×0.35]
=103[0.0875]
M=87.5kg
