Assertion :When a body floats such that it's parts are immersed into two immersible liquids the force exerted by liquid- 1 is of magnitude $ρ_{1} v_{1} g$ . Reason: Total Buoyant force $= ρ_{1} v_{1} g + ρ_{2} v_{2} g$

Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion

Solution

The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
The buoyant force on a body by liquid is the weight of the liquid displaced by the body, Thus the force exerted by liquid-1 is $ρ_{1} v_{1} g$ . Force exerted by liquid-2= $ρ_{2} v_{2} g$
Thus the total buoyant force= $ρ_{1} v_{1} g + ρ_{2} v_{2} g$
Both statements are true, but it is not the reason for the assertion.
