A block of wood floats in water with 60% of its volume submerged. In a liquid of density 0.8 g/cm³, the fraction of volume submerged will be:
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
From floatation: ρ_wood/ρ_water = fraction submerged in water = 0.6. Thus ρ_wood = 0.6 g/cm³ (since ρ_water = 1 g/cm³). In new liquid (ρ_l = 0.8 g/cm³), fraction submerged f = ρ_wood/ρ_l = 0.6/0.8 = 0.75 = 75%. This uses the principle that fraction submerged equals density ratio. Memory aid: 'f = ρ_object / ρ_fluid'. Such comparative buoyancy problems test application of Archimedes' principle across scenarios, common in competitive exams. Always maintain consistent units (g/cm³ here simplifies calculation).
