Let atmospheric pressure $= P _3=1.05 \times 10^5 \,Pa$

Pressure $20\,m$ below surface of lake

$P = P _0+\int gh$

$=1.05 \times 10^5+1000 \times 9.8 \times 20$

$=3.01 \times 10^5 Pa \left(\int \rightarrow \text { water density }=1000 kg / m ^3\right)$

$=3\,atm$

    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 below. The ratio $\left(\frac{h_1}{h_2}\right)$ of the heights of the liquid in the two arms is-
