The vertical limbs of a $U$ shaped tube are filled with a liquid of density $\rho$ upto a height $h$ on each side. The horizontal portion of the $U$ tube having length $2h$ contains a liquid of density $2\rho$ . The $U$ tube is moved horizontally with an accelerator $g/2$ parallel to the horizontal arm. The difference in heights in liquid levels in the two vertical limbs, at steady state will be 
  • A$\frac{{2h}}{7}$
  • B$\frac{{8h}}{7}$
  • C$\frac{{4h}}{7}$
  • D
    None of these

    A small spherical ball of radius $0.1 \,mm$ and density $10^{4} \,kg m ^{-3}$ falls freely under gravity through a a distance $h$ before entering a tank of water. If after entering the water the velocity of ball does not change and it continue to fall with same constant velocity inside water, then the value of $h$ wil be $m$. (Given $g =10 \,ms ^{-2}$, viscosity of water $=1.0 \times 10^{-5} \,N - sm ^{-2}$ )
