A solid of mass 1.0 kg is suspended using a thread and then submerged in water. If the tension on the thread is 5.0 N, determine the relative density of the solid.

Mutiso
Mass of solid = 1.0 kg
Weight of solid W = mg = 10 N
Tension on the string (T) = 5 N
Upthrust on solid (u) = W – T = 10 – 5 = 5
Relative density (d) = W / u = 10 / 5 = 2.
