$A$ uniform solid cylinder of density $0.8 \ g/cm^3$ floats in equilibrium in a combination of two non-mixing liquids $A$ and $B$ with its axis vertical. The densities of liquids $A$ and $B$ are $0.7 \ g/cm^3$ and $1.2 \ g/cm^3$,respectively. The height of liquid $A$ is $h_A = 1.2 \ cm$ and the length of the part of the cylinder immersed in liquid $B$ is $h_B = 0.8 \ cm$. Then the length of the part of the cylinder in air is ....... $cm$.

$A$ solid sphere of density $\rho_s$ which is $\eta$ $( > 1)$ times lighter than water (density $\rho_w$) is suspended in a water tank by a string tied to its base as shown in the figure. If the mass of the sphere is $m$,then the tension in the string is given by:

$A$ non-conducting body floats in a liquid at $20^{\circ} C$ with $\frac{2}{3}$ of its volume immersed in the liquid. When the liquid temperature is increased to $100^{\circ} C$,$\frac{3}{4}$ of the body's volume is immersed in the liquid. Then the coefficient of real expansion of the liquid is (neglecting the expansion of the container of the liquid):
