The height of the oil column above the water in the vessel is determined as 2 cm.
<h3>
Pressure of the vessel</h3>
The pressure of the vessel due to water, oil and silver poured into the vessel is determined from mercury column.
let level of mercury = 20 cm + 0.5 cm = 20.5 cm
20.5 cmHg = 205 mmHg
1 mmHg = 133.32 Pa
205 mmHg = 27,330.6 Pa
<h3>Height of the liquids in the vessel</h3>
P = ρgh
where;
ρ is the density of water, oil and silver respectively
ρ = 1000 kg/m³ + 881 kg/m³ + 10,800 kg/m³ = 12,681 kg/m³
h = P/(ρg)
h = (27,330.6) / (12,681 x 9.8)
h = 0.22 m
h = 22 cm
<h3>Height of oil column</h3>
Oil is less dense than water and will float on water.
Height of oil column = 22 cm - 20 cm = 2 cm

#SPJ1
Answer:
C. Decreasing the distance between the objects.
Explanation:
Gravitational force depends on mass and distance. The farther the objects are apart, the less gravitational force/pull they have.
