A container has a vertical tube attached to its side, as shown in the figure. The tube has an inner radius of 32.00 mm. An unknown liquid reaches level A in the container and level B in the tube. Level A is 5.0 cm higher than level B. The liquid in the tube supports a 20.0 cm high column of oil between levels B and C. What is the density of the unknown liquid? The density of the oil is 460 kg/m3.
