An open-ended $U$-tube of uniform cross-sectional area contains water (density $1.0 \, g/cm^3$) standing initially $20 \, cm$ from the bottom in each arm. An immiscible liquid of density $4.0 \, g/cm^3$ is added to one arm until a layer $5 \, cm$ high forms,as shown in the figure. What is the ratio $h_2/h_1$ of the heights of the liquid in the two arms?
