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
