Q154 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2020 (17 Sep Shift 2) · Physics

A weightless bag is filled with \(5 \mathrm{~kg}\) of water and is weighed in water using a spring balance. The reading of spring balance is

A
\(5 \mathrm{~kg}\)
B
\(2.5 \mathrm{~kg}\)
C
\(1.25 \mathrm{~kg}\)
Correct answer
D
\(0 \mathrm{~kg}\)

Solution

When water is placed in water, then its apparent weight is zero. Hence, weight measured by spring balance of weightless bag filled with \(5 \mathrm{~kg}\) in water is zero.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
