@MakeMeScientific A solid of density 3.2 g /cm³ is dropped into a liquid of density 1.4 g /cm³. Will it sink or float? Give reason. Pls answer to this question

[@MakeMeScientific]

If the density of solid is more than liquid it will sink.

[@sukhwinderkaur8022]

@@MakeMeScientific it means it will sink ?

@@MakeMeScientific it means this solid will sink.....thanks for the answer

[@sathidasgupta6293]

Can't we measure the actual density? Please reply

[@MakeMeScientific]

Yes we can

[@monabhortakke2261]

Keep going ...

[@VijayKumar-kq8xm]

Why we use sinker ?????

[@MakeMeScientific]

Or else the cork will not sink and we can't measure upthrust acting on it

[@sukhwinderkaur8022]

Not useful

[@MakeMeScientific]

Sorry for that

Why we use sinker ?????

[@MakeMeScientific]

Because the lighter body will not submerge in liquid so we forcefully make it submerges by using a sinker
