How it is 1.1?

Water specific gravity is always 1.

Xyz said:   9 years ago
Weights in water means buoyant force acting on it.

Anil said:   9 years ago
Yes, I too agree @Shailendra.

Xyz said:   9 years ago
It is greater than 1.

Madhu said:   9 years ago
Yes, It is 1. Agree @Shailendra.

It is exactly 1.0 not 1.1.

Sp gr. = density of object ÷ density of std fluid.

Therefore density of object is 3000/3 = 1000.
Hence sp gr = 1000 ÷ 1000 = 1.
