Question: A vertical U-tube of uniform inner cross section contains mercury in both sides of its arms. A glycerin (density = $1.3 g/cm^3$) column of length 10 cm is introduced into one of its arms. Oil of density $0.8 gm/cm^3$ is poured into the other arm until the upper surfaces of the oil and glycerin are in the same horizontal level. Find the length of the oil column, Density of mercury = $13.6 g/cm^3$
