A vertical `U` tube of uniform cross section contains mercury  in both of its arms. A glycerine `(d=1.3g//cm^(3))` column of length `10 cm` is introduced into one of the arms. Oil of density `0.8g//cm^(3)` is poured in the other arm until the upper surfaces of the oil and glycerine are in the same horizontal level. Find the length of oil column. Densit of mercury is `13.6g//cm^(3)`
