Solution

The correct option is A

both have equal volume.


The upthrust experienced by a body is independent of the weight of the body. It depends on the volume of the liquid displaced by the body which is equal to the volume of the body submerged. Here, since both experiences the same upthrust, therefore, both have equal volume.
