Four identical beakers contain same amount of water as shown below.

Question Image

Beaker A contains only water. A lead ball is held submerged in the beaker B by string from above. A same sized plastic ball, say a table tennis TT ball, is held submerged in beaker C by a string attached to a stand from outside. Beaker D contains same sized TT ball which is held submerged from a string attached to the bottom of the beaker. These beakers (without stand) are placed on weighing pans and register readings wA, wB, wC and wD for A, B, C and D respectively. Effects of the mass and volume of the stand and string are to be neglected.
