I've written mg= buoyant force. Buoyant force = mass of displaced liq = p(water)*area of base * height submerged(h)* gravity

And also used definition of specific gravity

i know the solution and understand it too but my questioin how is the specefic gravity related to it, the amount of block that is submerged

I mean intuitively samajhne ke liye bhi formula janana padega because specific gravity is a term invented by us Baaki you can think that if specific gravity>1, object will sink If sg<1, it floats So the depth of water displaced will be less than actual height of obj (cuz sm part floating above water) and somehow proportional to specific gravity (formulae se dikh rha hai but intuition), and the proportionality constant in this case is the side length
