A body weighing 14N in air is partially immersed in water. If the mass of water displaced in the process is 200g, calculate the upthrust on the body. [g=10\(m/s^{2}\)]
A
2.0N
B
3.0N
C
3.5N
D
7.0N
correct option: a
Upthrust = weight of liquid displaced
= mass of liquid displaced \(\times\) acceleration due to gravity
= \(\frac{200}{1000} \times 10\)
= 2N
