What is the apparent weight of the floation? And the answer given below why is it incorrect ."DO NOT SEND SIMILAR QUERIES"?

Ans b(ii) Apparent weight of the flotation means the density of the body submerged in the fluid is equal to the upthrust. That is body will float in the submerged fluid

Dear Student

Whenever an object is partially or completely immersed in fluid, it feels lighter. The object when immersed in fluid, some water is displaced and the object experiences a buoyant force. This buoyant force is equal to the weight of fluid displaced.

Apparent weight of the object in water  =  weight of object in air - buoyant force experienced by the object  

​Regards
