The pressure at the bottom of a tank of water is $3P$,where $P$ is the atmospheric pressure. If the water is drawn out until the level of water is lowered by one-fifth,the pressure at the bottom of the tank will now be:

  • A
    $2P$
  • B
    $(13/5)P$
  • C
    $(8/5)P$
  • D
    $(4/5)P$

Two substances of densities ${\rho _1}$ and ${\rho _2}$ are mixed in equal volumes and the relative density of the mixture is $4$. When they are mixed in equal masses,the relative density of the mixture is $3$. The values of ${\rho _1}$ and ${\rho _2}$ are

An open-ended $U$-tube of uniform cross-sectional area contains water (density $10^3 \ kg \ m^{-3}$). Initially,the water level stands at $0.29 \ m$ from the bottom in each arm. Kerosene oil (a water-immiscible liquid) of density $800 \ kg \ m^{-3}$ is added to the left arm until its length is $0.1 \ m$,as shown in the schematic figure. The ratio $\left(\frac{h_1}{h_2}\right)$ of the heights of the liquid in the two arms is-
