$A$ thin vertical uniform wooden rod is pivoted at the top and immersed in water as shown. The container is slowly raised. At a certain moment,the equilibrium becomes unstable. If the density of water is $9/5$ times the density of wood,then the ratio of the total length of the rod to the submerged length of the rod at that moment is:

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
    $6$
