Question

Select the correct statement from the statements given below:
$\left(i\right)$ An object sinks in water when its specific gravity $<1$
$\left(ii\right)$ An object floats in water when its specific gravity $>1$

• A. $\left(i\right)$ only
• B. $\left(ii\right)$ only
• C. Both$\left(i\right)\&\left(ii\right)$
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D None of the above

When $SG>1$, then $\text{density of object}>\text{density of water}$

Therefore, object sinks when its $SG>1$ & object floats when its $SG<1$.

i.e Both statements are wrong.
