In a U-tube, as shown in the figure, the water and oil are in the left side and right side of the tube respectively. The height of the water and oil columns are \(15~\text{cm}\) and \(20~\text{cm}\) respectively. The density of the oil is: \(\left[\text{take}~\rho_{\text{water}}= 1000~\text{kg/m}^{3}\right]\)

              
1. \(1200~\text{kg/m}^{3}\)
2. \(750~\text{kg/m}^{3}\)
3. \(1000~\text{kg/m}^{3}\)
4. \(1333~\text{kg/m}^{3}\)
