3. | \(\dfrac{vR^{2}}{n^{3}r^{2}}\) | 4. | \(\dfrac{v^{2}R}{nr}\) |
Two non-mixing liquids of densities \(\rho\) and \(n\rho\) \((n>1)\) are put in a container. The height of each liquid is \(h.\) A solid cylinder of length \(L\) and density \(d\) is put in this container. The cylinder floats with its axis vertical and length \(rL~(r<1))\) in the denser liquid. The density \(d\) is equal to:
1. \([2+(n+1)r ]\rho\)
2. \([2+(n-1)r] \rho\)

2. \( 0 \leq \theta_1<\theta_2<\theta_3<\frac{\pi}{2} \)
3. \( \frac{\pi}{2}<\theta_1<\theta_2<\theta_3<\pi \)
