A container is filled with oil and water. The weight of the same container when half filled with a liquid (s-1.95) alone is 90kN. If the volume of water is twice that the volume of oil, find the pecific gravity of the oil so that the weight of the container when fully filled with oil-water combination is the same when half filled with the aforementioned liguid.

A container is filled with oil and water. The weight of the same container when half filled with
a liquid (s=1.95) alone is 90kN. If the volume of water is twice that the volume of oil, find the
specific gravity of the oil so that the weight of the container when fully filled with oil-water
combination is the same when half filled with the aforementioned liguid.
