Liquid $A$ rises to a height of $10 \ cm$ in a capillary tube and liquid $B$ falls to a depth of $2 \ cm$ in the same tube. The densities of $A$ and $B$ are $1 \ g/cm^3$ and $10 \ g/cm^3$ respectively. The contact angles of $A$ and $B$ with the tube are $0^{\circ}$ and $135^{\circ}$ respectively. If the surface tensions of $A$ and $B$ are $S_A$ and $S_B$,then the ratio $\frac{S_B}{S_A}$ is:
