A body whose mass is 2kg and has a volume of 500cm3 just floats when completely immersed in a liquid. Calculate the density of the liquid

This is wrong 500cm to meters is 500÷100=5m
since D=m/v
D=2/5
=0.4

MYSCHOOL is correct because changing cm³ to m³ is dividing the volume in cm³ by 1million(1000000) or multiplying by 10^-6
So option B is correct after solving. You can correct me if im wrong

this answer so wrong if any conversions should be made it will be from cm to m which to divide 100 and 500/100 = 5m
then as we know density is equal to mass divided by volume so we say 2/ 5m which is 0.4. so pls my school make the necessary corrections and don't confuse us thanks 😊👈

The selected answer is wrong:

the answer supposed to be 0.4kg/m2

check ur conversions......cm to m is multiplying by e-2 nt by '10'

this is very wrong density is not same but upthrust is equals to weight in air

2/5000=0.0004.......nt 4 x 103kgm-3

it should be V= 500cm convert to m first by dividing it by 100 that will be 5m you'll the convert 5m to 5m³ which is the volume be using L³ 5*5*5= 125m³
so you'll now use Density =mass/Volume
D=2kg/125m³
D=0.016kg/m³ or 0.016kgm-³
