$Assertion$ : Specific gravity of a fluid is a dimensionless quantity.
$Reason$ : It is the ratio of density of fluid to the density of water at $4^{\circ}C$.

There is a circular tube in a vertical plane. Two liquids which do not mix and of densities $d_1$ and $d_2$ are filled in the tube. Each liquid subtends a $90^o$ angle at the centre. The radius joining their interface makes an angle $\alpha$ with the vertical. The ratio $\frac{d_1}{d_2}$ is

Three liquids of densities $d, 2d$,and $3d$ are mixed in equal volumes. Then the density of the mixture is

Two vessels have the same base area but different shapes. The first vessel takes twice the volume of water that the second vessel requires to fill up to a particular common height. Is the force exerted by the water on the base of the vessel the same in the two cases? If so,why do the vessels filled with water to that same height give different readings on a weighing scale?

Three identical vessels are filled to the same height with three different liquids $A, B$ and $C$ $(\rho_A > \rho_B > \rho_C)$. The pressure at the base will be
