A Glycerin container and Oil container are separated by a gate that is pinned at the top. The depth of Glycerin in its container is $1 m$ , the depth of Oil is $1 m + H$ . Assume that both containers extend into the page $1 m$ . At what Oil height, $H$ , above the top of the Glycerin are hydrostatic forces on the gate exactly balanced so that the gate stays vertical? (SG is Specific Gravity and $?_{water} = 9800 N / m^{3}$ )

Question

A Glycerin container and Oil container are separated by a gate that is pinned at the top. The depth of Glycerin in its container is
