Solution

Answer:

The mass or water displaced due to the immersion of the object is 500 gm, beacuse of "Archimedes principle'

Archimedes principle: When a body is immersed fully or partially in a fluid, it experiences an upward force that is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by it.

Mass of object immersed = Mass of water displaced
