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