drlaykay: Don't mind him. He doesn't know. A whole lot of people shouting Archimedes Principle here don't understand how it works in practice. Infact, the whole essence of Archimedes principle is hinged on conversion of volumes to mass. |

Donmobi:how can the object displace its own volume. It has to be weight. Can a floater or football displace its own volume when thrown into water? |

This Explains The part Of The Law That Said "Partially Or Fully"... As You Said If 1g Only isImmersed Then 9g Remains And Only 1g Is Lost Or Equal To The Displaced Fluid... PatrickOkunima: |

It's quite weird how most people here are struggling to get why the answer is B. Others are basically misquoting Archimedes. Now here's the principle. It states that when an object is partially or fully immersed in a fluid, it experiences an upward force which equals the weight of of fluid displaced. Whereas an object would always displaces it's own volume when inserted in a fluid. Small volume, small volume displaced. Thus, B. |

falcon01: It's B. Hollow object can't sink to the bottom. B has the smallest body mass |
Re: Which Glass Has More Water? by Donmobi(m): 11:38am On Apr 22, 2023 |
RepoMan007:Yes. If 1/3rd of the ball floats in water, it displaces one third of a volume of water. |
Re: Which Glass Has More Water? by RepoMan007: 11:41am On Apr 22, 2023 |
Donmobi:but 1/3rd is not same as the ball volume? |
Re: Which Glass Has More Water? by Sunnyski: 11:41am On Apr 22, 2023 |
B. It contains just pin that doesn't occupy space unlike the rest. |

CivilianJTF: You think that principle holds here? As long as the object can sink, the weight does not matter but size. |
Re: Which Glass Has More Water? by CaptainFM1: 11:45am On Apr 22, 2023 |
Donmobi: You are partly correct, if you reason like unscientific person. It's like arguing that folding a piece of paper 42times will reach the moon. Mathematically correct, but practically impossible. So a mathematician would understand better, but an ordinary man would find it difficult to understand. So you're all looking at a face value of images. What if the pair of scissors is a paper image dip inside the water? Or the wrist watch is a mirror image on the glass? A doctor would not issue you a medicine without proper diagnosis of your ailments. |

Re: Which Glass Has More Water? by joyd200: 11:47am On Apr 22, 2023 |
The answer is option B, only if all the objects are inside the respective Glass cup. Otherwise, it is difficult to tell since the Glass cup is transparent and some or all the objects could have been outside the corresponding Glass cup(s). |

PatrickOkunima:...and how is this different from what he said. |
Re: Which Glass Has More Water? by Donmobi(m): 11:54am On Apr 22, 2023 |
RepoMan007:That's the point. 1/3rd of the volume immersed displaces1/3rd volume of fluid. Same goes if it's fully immersed, it displaces it's whole volume. |

Re: Which Glass Has More Water? by richmond500: 11:58am On Apr 22, 2023 |
CaptainFM1:normal water is the water you drink at home which has room temperature. TBH, You do not need those parameters to answer the question |
Re: Which Glass Has More Water? by Donmobi(m): 11:58am On Apr 22, 2023 |
CaptainFM1:Nah. This is just a test question. When the principles are duly applied, you're sure of getting the answer. |
