An ideal gas is trapped inside a test tube of cross-sectional area $20 \times 10^{-6} \,\,m^2$ as shown in the figure. The gas occupies a height $L_1$ at the bottom of the tube and is separated from air at atmospheric pressure by a mercury column of mass $0.002\,\, kg$. If the tube is quickly turned isothermally, upside down so that $L_2$ mercury column encloses the gas from below. The gas now occupies height $L_1$ in the tube. The ratio $L_1$ is [Take atmospheric pressure $= 10^5 Nm^{-2}]$
