Q. A cylinder is floating in two liquids ad shown in figure. Choose the correct options

A uniform solid cylinder of density $0.8 g / {cm}^{3}$ floats in equilibrium in a combination of two non-mixing liquids A and B with its axis vertical. The densities of the liquids A and B are $0.7 g / {cm}^{3}$ and $1.2 g / {cm}^{3}$ respectively. The height of liquid A is $h_{A} = 1.2 cm$ . The length of the part of the cylinder immersed in liquid B is $h_{B} = 0.8 cm$ .
