$A$ 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
    $200$

The limbs of a $U$-tube are lowered into vessels $A$ and $B$,where vessel $A$ contains water. Some air is pumped out through the top of the tube at $C$. The liquids in the left limb (in vessel $A$) and the right limb (in vessel $B$) rise to heights of $10\, cm$ and $12\, cm$ respectively above the free surfaces of the liquids in the vessels. The density of liquid $B$ is ........ $g/cm^3$.
