fluid doubts from vmc module... please help 4

A uniform rod of density ∂ is placed in a wide tank containing a liquid of density ∂o(∂o>∂). The depth of liquid in the tank is half the length of the rod. The rod is in equilibrium , with its lower end resting on the bottom of the tank. In this postion the rod makes an angle @(theta) with the horizontal..

a) sin @ = √(∂o/∂)2

b)sin @ = (∂o/∂)2

c)sin @ = √(∂o/∂)

d) sin @ = (∂o/∂)

the ans given is a

i've done till here...
after this i'm not getting any relation with sin@

U are almost der.

look,sinθ=h/l where h=L/2

so sinθ=L/2l=1/2√(ρ0/ρ)

GUYS YOU HAVE GONE WRONG !!!

THE PART OF ROD IMMERSED UNDER WATER IS NOT L/2 !!!

ya dats where the problem....

u r telling
sin @ = h/l where h = L/2

but from where are you getting h=L/2...

(you are assuming h to be the height of water in the tank rite?? then how is that h = L/2 = dist of com from either end of the rod????)

(i've assumed these...
L = length of rod
l = length of rod inside water
from pt where rod touch the surface tank to where W acts is L/2
from pt where rod touch the surface tank to where B acts is l/2..)

I'm posting the solution ri8 now,......I've done it

Taking moments about pt. A (to eliminate this hell of Normal Reaction),

moment due to upthrust = moment due to weight as rod is in equilibrium

AL g ρ cosθ . L/2 = A x ρ0 g cosθ . x/2

so L2 . ρ = x2 . ρ0

so x = L √(ρρ0)

now take the triangle involving the part of submerged rod, the depth of the liquid and the base of the tank.

sinθ = (depth of the tank) / AB

or sinθ = (L/2) / x
so sinθ = √(ρ0/ρ)2

Ans A.
