A block of wood 0.54 m x 0.54 m x "h" meters in dimension was thrown into a liquid with SG = 2.466. It floats with 0.22 m projecting above the water surface. The same block was thrown into a container of a liquid having a SG of 1.684 and it floats with 0.15 m. projecting above the liquid surface. Determine the value of 'h' in meters. Round off to two decimal places.
