A cylindrical object 82mm diameter, 165mm height and a mass of 599g, is placed in the tank, which contains oil(48mm thick) and water. Calculate the height(in mm) above the surface of the oil at which it will float if maintained in the vertical position. Take density of oil equals 966 kg/m3. Answer in two decimal places. Numerical values only. Don't indicate units here, just on the submitted solution.
