Specific Gravity and relative density are not the same but, numerically equal.

So, Answer is B.

Density of water = 1000 kg/m^3.

The specific gravity of water due to water = 1.

Is 1 = 1000?

@Brij kishor. According to your answer, there should be proportional not numerically equal.

Sg has no unit.

That's why The specific gravity of pure water is taken as unity.

I think this answer is true only in the case of water not for other fluid.

GAURAV said:   6 years ago
I agree with Rn Singh. Both are numerically same and answer is correct.

Density of liquid = it's specific gravity * 1 gram/m^3.
= 1000kg/m^3.

I think this question, there must be kg/liter.
