The relative densities of four liquids P, Q, R and S are 1.26, 1.0, 0.84 and 13.6 respectively. An object is floated in all these liquids, one by one. In which liquid the object will float with its maximum volume submerged under the liquid?
(a) P
(b) Q
(c) R
(d) S
As given here, the relative densities of four liquids P, Q, R, and S are 1.26, 1.0, 0.84, and 13.6 respectively.
Here liquid R has the least density.
When an object is floated in all these liquids, one by one, then in liquid R the object will float with its maximum volume submerged under the liquid.
Therefore, option (c) is correct.

- P, Q, R and S are four major types of phytohormones. P is a phytohormone which functions mainly as a growth inhibitor. It promotes the wilting and falling of leaves. Q, R and S are phytohormones which all promote growth of plants in various ways. Q is responsible for the phenomenon of phototropism in plants. R is involved mainly in shoot extensions. The phytohormone S helps in breaking the dormancy of seeds and buds. What are P, Q, R and S? Give one reason each for your choice.
