Three different liquids are filled in a U-tube as shown in figure. Their densities are \(\rho_1, \rho_2\) and \(\rho_3\) respectively. From the figure we may conclude that


  1. A \(\rho_3=4\left(\rho_2-\rho_1\right)\)
  2. B \(\rho_3=4\left(\rho_1-\rho_2\right)\)
  3. C \(\rho_3=2\left(\rho_2-\rho_1\right)\)
  4. D \(\quad \rho_3=\frac{\rho_1+\rho_2}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\rho_3=2\left(\rho_2-\rho_1\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(h \rho_1+\frac{h}{2} \rho_3=h \rho_2, \rho_1+\frac{\rho_3}{2}=\rho_2 \quad \quad \rho_3=2\left(\rho_2-\rho_1\right)\)
