    Which has the highest weight?

    A) \[1\,\,{{m}^{3}}\]of water

    B) A normal adult man

    C) \[10\,\,L\]of\[Hg\]

    D) All have same weight

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    (a) Density of water\[=1\,\,g\,\,c{{m}^{-3}}\] Mass of water\[=1{{m}^{3}}={{10}^{6}}c{{m}^{-3}}\] \[Mass=volume\times density\]           \[={{10}^{6}}c{{m}^{-3}}\times 1g\,\,c{{m}^{-3}}\]           \[={{10}^{6}}g\]           \[=\frac{{{10}^{6}}}{{{10}^{3}}}kg\]           \[=1000\,\,kg\] (b) Mass of normal adult man\[=65\,\,kg\] (c) Density of\[Hg=13.6g\,\,c{{m}^{-3}}\] Volume of\[Hg=10\,\,L=10\times 1000\,\,c{{m}^{-3}}\] \[\therefore \]Mass of\[Hg=13.6\times 10\times 1000\] \[=136000g\] \[=13.6\,\,kg\] \[\therefore \]Mass of\[1\,\,{{m}^{3}}\]water is highest.
