Question

A sphere of solid material of density d has a concentric spherical cavity of radius r. lf it just floats in water, i-e-, with its upper surface touching the water surface, then R and r ate related as: (Take density of water = 1)

Moderate
Solution

For floatation W=Th=Vinρwg
43π(R3-r3)dg=43πR3×1g                         r3=R31-1d
