Two cubes each weighing 22 g exactly are taken. One is of iron $(d = 8 imes 10^{3}\ kg\ m^{- 3})$ and the other is of marble$(D = 3 imes 10^{3}\ kg\ m^{- 3})$. They are immersed in alcohol and then weighed again

Question

Two cubes each weighing 22 g exactly are taken. One is of iron $(d = 8 	imes 10^{3}\ kg\ m^{- 3})$ and the other is of marble$(D = 3 	imes 10^{3}\ kg\ m^{- 3})$. They are immersed in alcohol and then weighed again

(b) Since density of iron is more than that of marble, the volume of iron is less than that of marble for the given mass. The up thrust of water on iron will be less than that on marble. Due to which iron cube will weigh more
