An open box with sides 0.5 cm thick, bottom 1 cm thick, internal dimensions 14 × 10 × 8 cm is filled with water. If water weighs 1000 kg per cubic metre, then what is the weight of the box with water?

  1. A.1·850 kg✓ Correct
  2. B.1·900 kg
  3. C.2·050 kg
  4. D.2·100 kg

Explanation

Material weight = 730 gm (from previous problem). Water volume = 14 × 10 × 8 = 1120 cm³. Water weight = 1120 × 1000/10⁶ kg = 1.120 kg = 1120 gm. Total = 730 + 1120 = 1850 gm = 1.850 kg.
