Solution

The correct option is D 11.5 kg
$\begin{matrix} Given- Reading of spring balance initially = 10kg Final Reading = ? \end{matrix}$
$\begin{matrix} Finally when an ice cube of 1.5 k g is added in the bucket the final Reading becomes - \begin{matrix} Reading & = 10 k g + 1.5 k g = 11.5 k g \end{matrix} \end{matrix}$
