Electric current passes through a filament of an incandescent bulb, thereby increasing it temperature. When current flows, it contains electrons through the filament to produce light. Typically, incandescent light bulb consists of a glass enclosure that contains tungsten filament. The glass enclosure contains either a vacuum or an inert gas that serves as the filament protection from evaporating. Incandescent light bulbs contain a stem attached at to its base to allow the electrical contacts to run through the envelope without gas or air leaks.

A body of volume 100cc immersed completely in water contained in a jar. The weight of water and jar before immersion of the body
BlackZzzverrR [31]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

800gm

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Archimedes principle states that when an object is immersed in a liquid there is an apparent loss of weight of the object. This apparent loss of weight is also the upthrust experienced by the liquid. The upthrust is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced.

Following from the above statement, when the body of volume 100c.c is immersed in the water contained in the jar, the upthrust experienced is equal to the weight of the water displaced.

<em>Note: In the question, weight is measured just using the mass.</em>

Mass (m) is the product of density (ρ) of liquid (which is water in this case) and volume (v) of body immersed. i.e

m = ρ x v

Where;

ρ = 1 gm/cm³

v = 100c.c = 100cm³

=> m = 1 gm/cm³ x 100cm³

=> m = 100gm

Therefore the weight of water displaced is 100gm

Now, the weight of the water and jar after immersion is the sum of the weight of water and jar before immersion, and the weight of the water displaced. i.e

Weight of water and jar after immersion = 700gm + 100gm = 800gm
