Given :-
Weight of stone in air, W = 450 N
Weight of stone in water, Wwater = 200 N
Find :- Volume of stone, V
Solution :-
$Weight of stone in water, W = water Weight of stone - Buoyant force$
$W water = W-F B$
$200 = 450 - FB$
$FB = 250 N$

$Buoyant force, FB = Weight of water displaced = water XV water$
$250 = 9810 x water$
$Vwater = 0.025 m$

$Volume of water displaced, = water Volume of stone,$
$V = 0,025 m$
