Question:medium
Three different liquids are filled in a U-tube as shown. Their densities are \( \rho_1, \rho_2, \rho_3 \) respectively. From the figure we may conclude that
Three different liquids are filled in a U-tube as shown. Their densities are \( \rho_1, \rho_2, \rho_3 \) respectively. From the figure we may conclude that
Show Hint
U-tube problems:
Compare pressures at same level.
Use \( \rho g h \).
Compare pressures at same level.
Use \( \rho g h \).
Updated On: Mar 2, 2026
- \( \rho_3 = 4(\rho_2 - \rho_1) \)
- \( \rho_3 = 4(\rho_1 - \rho_2) \)
- \( \rho_3 = 2(\rho_2 - \rho_1) \)
- \( \rho_3 = \frac{\rho_1+\rho_2}{2} \)
Show Solution
The Correct Option is C
