Consider two liquids \(\mathrm{A}\) and \(\mathrm{B}\) in a U-shaped tube in static equilibrium as shown in the figure. If the density of the liquid \(A\) is twice the density of liquid \(B\), then the relation between \(h_A\) and \(h_B\) is

  1. A \(\mathrm{h}_{\mathrm{A}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}_{\mathrm{B}}}{\sqrt{2}}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{h}_{\mathrm{A}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}_{\mathrm{B}}}{2}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{h}_{\mathrm{A}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}_{\mathrm{B}}}{3}\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{h}_{\mathrm{A}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}_{\mathrm{B}}}{\sqrt{3}}\)
