Which of the following relations correctly represents the equality of hydrostatic pressures for two stationary liquid columns of densities ρ1\rho_{1} and ρ2\rho_{2} having vertical heights h1h_{1} and h2h_{2} respectively? a) ρ1ρ2=h1h2\dfrac{\rho_{1}}{\rho_{2}}=\dfrac{h_{1}}{h_{2}} b) ρ1gh12=ρ2gh2\dfrac{\rho_{1} g h_{1}}{2}=\rho_{2} g h_{2} c) ρ1gh1=ρ2gh2\rho_{1}g h_{1}=\rho_{2}g h_{2} d) ρ1gh2=ρ2gh1\rho_{1}g h_{2}=\rho_{2}g h_{1}
