$A$ jar is filled with two non-mixing liquids $1$ and $2$ having densities $\rho_1$ and $\rho_2$ respectively. $A$ solid ball,made of a material of density $\rho_3$,is dropped in the jar. It comes to equilibrium in the position shown in the figure. Which of the following is true for $\rho_1, \rho_2$ and $\rho_3$?

  • A
    $\rho_1 < \rho_3 < \rho_2$
  • B
    $\rho_3 < \rho_1 < \rho_2$
  • C
    $\rho_1 > \rho_3 > \rho_2$
  • D
    $\rho_1 < \rho_2 < \rho_3$
