Solution

The correct option is C Z
Volume is the measure of the space occupied by the matter. Measuring cylinder A has 40 mL of content in it where cylinder B has 80 mL content. On pouring the content if measuring cylinders A and B into cylinder C, the volume of two contents gets added. Thus, volume contained in cylinder C is 40 mL + 80 mL = 120 mL. Letter Z represents the amount of liquid that will be in cylinder C.

A uniform solid cylinder of density $0.8 g / {cm}^{3}$ floats in equilibrium in a combination of two non-mixing liquids A and B with its axis vertical. The densities of the liquids A and B are $0.7 g / {cm}^{3}$ and $1.2 g / {cm}^{3}$ respectively. The height of liquid A is $h_{A} = 1.2 cm$ . The length of the part of the cylinder immersed in liquid B is $h_{B} = 0.8 cm$ .
