Answer:
B buoyant force (mass) = 600 - 400 = 200 g (I)
upthrust is 200 g due to decrease in apparent body weight
(Note that g is being treated as force here when it is actually mass)
D = M / V definition of density
since density of water is 1 (1 g / cm^3)
from (I) the equivalent volume of water is 200 cm^3 since the upthrust will equal the weight of the water displaced
Relative density of solid is 600 g / 200 g = 3 (weight of solid vs the weight of the water displaced
D = 3 g / cm^3 density of solit
