Three blocks, labelled and are floating in water as shown in the drawing. Blocks and have the same mass and volume. Block has the same volume, but is submerged to a greater depth than the other two blocks. Which one of the following statements concerning this situation is/are true ?


A cylindrical vessel filled with water is released on an inclined surface of angle $\theta$ as shown in figure. The friction coefficient of surface with vessel is Then the constant angle made by the surface of water with the incline will be-

A cylindrical container of radius and height is completely filled with a liquid. Two horizontal shaped pipes of small cross-section area are connected to the cylinder as shown in the figure. Now the two pipes are opened and fluid starts coming out of the pipes horizontally in opposite directions. Then the torque due to ejected liquid on the system is-
