A cube floats both in water and in a liquid of specific gravity of \(0.8\). Therefore,

(A) The apparent weight of the cube is the same in water and in liquid.
(B) The cube has displaced an equal volume of water and liquid while floating.
(C) The cube has displaced an equal weight of water and liquid while floating.
(D) If some weights are placed on the top surface of the cube to make it just sink, the load in the case of water will be \(0.8\) times that to be used in the case of liquid.
