A body of density ${\mathrm{d}}_1$ is counterpoised by Mg of weights of density ${\mathrm{d}}_2$ in air of density d. Then the true mass of the body is

1. M                                   

2. $\mathrm{M}\left(1-\frac{\mathrm{d}}{{\mathrm{d}}_2}\right)$

3. $\mathrm{M}\left(1-\frac{\mathrm{d}}{{\mathrm{d}}_1}\right)$                       

4. $\frac{\mathrm{M}(1-\mathrm{d}/{\mathrm{d}}_2)}{(1-\mathrm{d}/{\mathrm{d}}_1)}$

The value of g at a place decreases by 2%. The barometric height of mercury

3. Remains unchanged

4. Sometimes increases and sometimes decreases
 

A barometer kept in a stationary elevator reads \(76~\text{cm}\). If the elevator starts accelerating up, the reading will be:
1. Zero
2. Equal to \(76~\text{cm}\)
3. More than \(76~\text{cm}\)
4. Less than \(76~\text{cm}\)

A vertical \(\mathrm{U}\)-tube of uniform inner cross-section contains mercury in both its arms. A glycerin (density\(=1.3\) g/cm³) column of length \(10\) cm is introduced into one of its arms. Oil of density \(0.8\) 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 \(=13.6\) g/cm³)
                       
1. \(10.4\) cm
2. \(8.2\) cm
3. \(7.2\) cm
4. \(9.6\) cm
