    $P$ is equal to $p$
  • B
    $P$ is less than $p$
  • C
    $P$ is greater than $p$
  • D
    $P$ may be less or greater than $p$ depending on the mass of the confined air

An open-ended $U$-tube of uniform cross-sectional area contains water (density $10^3 \ kg \ m^{-3}$). Initially,the water level stands at $0.29 \ m$ from the bottom in each arm. Kerosene oil (a water-immiscible liquid) of density $800 \ kg \ m^{-3}$ is added to the left arm until its length is $0.1 \ m$,as shown in the schematic figure. The ratio $\left(\frac{h_1}{h_2}\right)$ of the heights of the liquid in the two arms is-

Three identical vessels are filled up to the same height with three different liquids $A, B$ and $C$ of densities $\rho_A, \rho_B$ and $\rho_C$ (where $\rho_A > \rho_B > \rho_C$). The pressure at the bottom of the vessels is:
