Consider two liquids \(A\) and \(B\) 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

An object hangs from a spring balance. The balance shows 40 N when the object is in air, 30 N when the object is immersed in water, and 34 N when the object is immersed in another liquid. If the density of water is 1000 kg m\(^{-3}\), then the density of the liquid is

A container is filled to a height of 20 cm with water. A 30 cm thick layer of oil with specific gravity 0.8 floats on the top of water. If the density of water is 1000 kg/m\(^3\) and atmospheric pressure is \(1 \times 10^5\) Pa, then the total pressure at the bottom of the container is:
[Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s\(^2\)]
