Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Mp = 1 x 40 = 40kg ; mQ = 1.6 x 60 = 96kg
volume of mixture = 40 + 60 = 100m3
mass of mixture = 40 + 96 = 136kg
density of mixture = \(\frac{136}{100}\)
= 1.36kgm3
Mp = 1 x 40 = 40kg ; mQ = 1.6 x 60 = 96kg
volume of mixture = 40 + 60 = 100m3
mass of mixture = 40 + 96 = 136kg
density of mixture = \(\frac{136}{100}\)
= 1.36kgm3
