Question

1 Kg of water approximately equals 1 L.
The inside length of a cubical container is 50 cm and weighs 500 g. What would be the total weight of the container if water is filled up to the brim?

• A. 125 Kg
• B. 125 kg 50 g
• C. 125 kg 500 g
• D. 12 kg 505 g

Answer 1

The correct option is C 125 kg 500 g

Given: 1 Kg of water = 1 L
Side of cubical container = 50 cm
Volume of cubical container = 50 × 50 × 50 = 125000 cu. cm
We know,
1000 cu. cm = 1 L
So, 125000 cu. cm = 125 L
Also, 125 L of water = 125 Kg
and, Empty weight of the container = 500 g
Total weight of the container when water is filled up to its brim = 125 kg + 500 g = 125 kg 500 g
