QUESTION:

The top part of a water tank is divided into two compartments, as shown in Fig. P3-41. Now a fluid with an unknown density is poured into one side, and the water level rises a certain amount on the other side to compensate for this effect. Based on the final fluid heights shown on the figure, determine the density of the fluid added. Assume the liquid does not mix with water.
