  • A
    If both $(A)$ and $(R)$ are true and $(R)$ is the correct explanation of $(A)$.
  • B
    If both $(A)$ and $(R)$ are true but $(R)$ is not the correct explanation of $(A)$.
  • C

$A$ metal cube is embedded inside a block of ice that is floating on the surface of water. The ice melts completely, and the metal cube sinks into the water. What happens to the water level in the container?

$A$ cube having a side of $10 \ cm$ with unknown mass $m$ and a $200 \ g$ mass were hung at two ends of a uniform rigid rod of $27 \ cm$ length. The rod along with the masses was placed on a wedge,keeping the distance between the wedge point and the $200 \ g$ weight as $25 \ cm$. Initially,the masses were not in balance. $A$ beaker is placed beneath the unknown mass and water is added slowly to it. At a given point,the masses were in balance and half the volume of the unknown mass was submerged in the water. (Take the density of the unknown mass to be greater than that of water,the mass did not absorb water,and the water density is $1 \ g/cm^3$). The unknown mass $m$ is . . . . . . $kg$.
