Water and Kerosine are drawn respectively into ... - JAMB Physics 2019 Question

Water and Kerosine are drawn respectively into the two limbs of a Hare's apparatus. The destiny of water is 1.0gcm\(^{-3}\) and the density of kerosine is 0.80gcm\(^{-3}\). If the height of the water column is 20.0cm, calculate the height of the kerosine column.

A

1.6cm

B

16.0cm

C

20.0cm

D

25.0cm

correct option: d

for the different liquids,


d\(_1\)h\(_1\) = d\(_2\)h\(_2\)
1 × 20 = 0.8 × h

h = 20
0.8
= 25cm

h = 25cm
