$A$ cube having a side of $10 \ cm$ with unknown mass $m$ and a $200 \ g$ mass were hung at two ends of a uniform rigid rod of $27 \ cm$ length. The rod along with the masses was placed on a wedge,keeping the distance between the wedge point and the $200 \ g$ weight as $25 \ cm$. Initially,the masses were not in balance. $A$ beaker is placed beneath the unknown mass and water is added slowly to it. At a given point,the masses were in balance and half the volume of the unknown mass was submerged in the water. (Take the density of the unknown mass to be greater than that of water,the mass did not absorb water,and the water density is $1 \ g/cm^3$). The unknown mass $m$ is . . . . . . $kg$.

$A$ cylindrical block floats vertically in a liquid of density $\rho_{1}$ kept in a container such that the fraction of volume of the cylinder inside the liquid is $x_{1}$. Then some amount of another immiscible liquid of density $\rho_{2} (\rho_{2} < \rho_{1})$ is added to the liquid in the container so that the cylinder now floats just fully immersed in the liquids with $x_{2}$ being the fraction of volume of the cylinder inside the liquid of density $\rho_{1}$. The ratio $\rho_{1} / \rho_{2}$ will be
