A body weights 0.26N in air. When totally immerse in water weight 0.16N and 0.18N in another liquid. Calculate the relative density of the liquid

1 answer

To calculate the relative density of the liquid, we need to use the formula:

Relative density = (weight in air - weight in liquid)/(weight in air - weight in water)

Plugging in the given values, we get:

Relative density = (0.26 - 0.18)/(0.26 - 0.16) = 0.08/0.1 = 0.8

Therefore, the relative density of the second liquid is 0.8.
