Question #1
A lactometer operates on the principle of:
A. Bernoulli's Theorem
B. Newton's Law of Viscosity
C. Archimedes' Principle
D. Pascal's Law

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
A lactometer is a specific type of hydrometer used to test the purity of milk by measuring its relative density. All hydrometers, including lactometers, work on Archimedes' Principle of buoyancy. They float at a depth that depends directly on the density of the liquid; they sink deeper in less dense liquids (like milk heavily diluted with water).
