$A$ vessel with a square cross-section and a height of $6 \ m$ is vertically partitioned. $A$ small window of $100 \ cm^2$ with a hinged door is fitted at a depth of $3 \ m$ in the partition wall. One part of the vessel is filled completely with water and the other side is filled with a liquid having a density of $1.5 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$. What force needs to be applied on the hinged door so that it does not open (in $N$)? (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ m/s^2$)

  • A
    $150$
  • B
    $130$
  • C
    $160$
  • D
    $200$

$A$ cubical block of wood, of length $10 \,cm$, floats at the interface between oil of density $800 \,kg/m^3$ and water. The lower surface of the block is $1.5 \,cm$ below the interface. If the depth of water is $10 \,cm$ below the interface and oil is up to $10 \,cm$ above the interface, then the difference in pressure at the lower and the upper face of the wooden block is:
