Question

Two non-mixing liquids of densities ρ and nρ(n> 1) are put in a container. The height of each liquids h . A solid cylinder of length L and density d is put in this container. The cylinder floats with its its axis vertical and length pL(p<1) in the denser liquid. The density d is equal to

Solution

The correct option is A {1+(n1)p}p
d=densityofcylinderA=areaofcrosssectionalofcylinderUsinglawoffloation,weightofcylinder=upthrustbytwoliquidsL×A×d×g=nρ×(pL×A)g+ρ(LpL)Agd=npρ+ρ(1p)=(np+1p)ρd={1+(n1)p}ρ
Hence,
option (A) is correct answer.
