Given
Egg sinks in freshwater but floats in saturated solution of salt and water
To find
Give reason
Explanation
We know the density of egg is more than the density of fresh water while it is less than the density of saturated solution
Thus the upward force ( upthrust) from the freshwater couldnot balance the downward for the edd and it sinks.
In case of saturated solution, the egg's downward force is less than the upward force of the saturated solution and thus it floats
