$A$ wooden block of volume $1000\, cm^3$ is suspended from a spring balance. It weighs $12\, N$ in air. It is suspended in water such that half of the block is below the surface of water. The reading of the spring balance is ...... $N$.

$A$ metallic body of material with density of $8000\ kg/m^3$ has a cavity inside. $A$ spring balance shows its mass to be $10.0\ kg$ in air and $7.5\ kg$ when immersed in water. The ratio of the volume of the cavity to the volume of the material of the body must be

$Assertion$ : $A$ balloon filled with hydrogen will fall with acceleration $\frac{g}{6}$ on the moon.
$Reason$ : Moon has no atmosphere.

$A$ cube of external side length $10 \ cm$ has an inner cubical cavity of side length $5 \ cm$. The density of the inner portion is twice that of the outer portion. If this cube is just floating in a liquid of density $2 \ g/cm^3$, find the density of the inner portion.

$A$ hemispherical portion of radius $R$ is removed from the bottom of a cylinder of radius $R$. The volume of the remaining cylinder is $V$ and mass $M$. It is suspended by a string in a liquid of density $\rho$,where it stays vertical. The upper surface of the cylinder is at a depth $h$ below the liquid surface. The force on the bottom of the cylinder by the liquid is

An empty glass jar is submerged in a tank of water with the open mouth of the jar downwards, so that the air inside the jar is trapped and cannot escape. As the jar is pushed down slowly, the magnitude of the net buoyant force on the system of the volume of gas trapped in the jar and the jar:
