Properties of Fluids

The term fluid represents a type of substance that can easily change its shape under any external pressure/force and can flow. Fluids can acquire any shape in which it is stored and can resist normal stresses but cannot resist shear stress in rest condition. Whenever external shear stress is applied to fluids, it starts to flow. The fluids may be liquid or gas. Example- water, air, etc.

Question

When submerged in a fluid, a 7-cm diameter solid aluminum ball (SG = 2.70) and a 3.8-cm diameter solid brass ball (SG = 8.50) balance nicely, as seen in the image. What is the fluid's specific gravity? Neglect the friction on the pulleys.
