2. 300 cm3
3. 250 cm3
4. 22 cm3

A vertical -tube of uniform inner cross-section contains mercury in both its arms. A glycerin (density g/cm3) column of length cm is introduced into one of its arms. Oil of density g/cm3 is poured into the other arm until the upper surfaces of the oil and glycerin are at the same horizontal level. The length of the oil column is:
(density of mercury g/cm3)
1. cm
2. cm
3. cm
4. cm
