Two cylinders of same cross-section and length $L$ but made of two materials of densities $d_1$ and $d_2$ are cemented together to form a cylinder of length $2L$. The combination floats in a liquid of density $d$ with a length $L/2$ above the surface of the liquid. If $d_1 > d_2$,then:

  • A
    $d > \frac{3}{4} d_1$
  • B
    $\frac{d}{2} > d_1$
  • C
    $\frac{d}{4} > d_1$
  • D
    $d_1 > \frac{3}{4} d$
