A thin uniform cylindrical shell, closed at both ends, is partially filled with water. It is floating vertically in water in half-submerged state. If ρc is the relative density of the material of the shell with respect to water, then the correct statement is that the shell is
  1. more than half-filled if rc is less than 0.5
  2. more than half-filled if rc is more than 1.0
  3. half-filled if rc more than 0.5
  4. less than half-filled if rc is less than 0.5

Answer
