$A$ sphere of diameter $7 \, cm$ and mass $266.5 \, g$ floats in a bath of a liquid. As the temperature is raised,the sphere just begins to sink at a temperature $35^{\circ} C$. If the density of the liquid at $0^{\circ} C$ is $1.527 \, g/cm^3$,then neglecting the expansion of the sphere,the coefficient of cubical expansion of the liquid is:

  • A
    $8.486 \times 10^{-4} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$
  • B
    $8.486 \times 10^{-5} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$
  • C
    $8.486 \times 10^{-6} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$
  • D
    $8.486 \times 10^{-3} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$

As shown in the figure,a container is filled with a liquid of density $2d$ up to a height of $H/2$ and a liquid of density $d$ above it up to a height of $H/2$. $A$ solid cylinder of cross-sectional area $A/5$ and length $L$ $(L < H/2)$ is placed vertically in this container. The cylinder floats vertically such that its lower end is at a distance of $L/4$ from the interface of the two liquids. Find the density $D$ of the cylinder. (The atmospheric pressure at the surface of the upper liquid is $P_0$.)
