Detailed Solution

To employ Archimedes' principle, keep in mind the idea of the Archimedes principle and recognize the supplied values. Using the formula for density, calculate the body's density after determining the body's volume, i.e., water rises = the body's volume.

The volume of body V =changes in water levels 

V=60-20=40cm3

Density of body ρ=mv=25040=6.25gm/cm3

Alsoρ=6.25×1000=6250kg/m3

Hence, the correct answer is 40cm36250kg/m3.
