Two non-mixing liquids of densities \(\rho\) and \(n\rho\) \((n>1)\) are put in a container. The height of each liquid is \(h.\) A solid cylinder of length \(L\) and density \(d\) is put in this container. The cylinder floats with its axis vertical and length \(rL~(r<1))\) in the denser liquid. The density \(d\) is equal to:
1. \([2+(n+1)r ]\rho\) 2. \([2+(n-1)r] \rho\)
3. \([1+(n-1)r] \rho\) 4. \([1+(n+1)r ]\rho\)
